Amores

Ovid

Ovid. Ovid's Art of Love (in three Books), the Remedy of Love, the Art of Beauty, the Court of Love, the History of Love, and Amours. Dryden, John, et al., translator. New York: Calvin Blanchard, 1855.

  1. Why could not nature's kindness first contrive,
  2. That faithful lovers should like spirits live,
  3. Mix'd in one point and yet divided lie,
  4. Enjoying an united liberty?
  5. But since we must thro' distant regions go,
  6. Why was not the same way design'd for two?
  7. One single care determined still for both,
  8. And the kind virgin join'd the loving youth?
