  1. Though oft I do not what I write approve,
  2. Like, or not like it, I must sing of love.
  3. Whether for Ithaca's illustrious dame,
  4. To great Ulysses I a letter frame,
  5. Or for Oenone tender things indite,
  6. Or soft complaints for injur'd Phillis write;
  7. Whether fair Canace's incestuous care
  8. I sooth, or flatter Dido's fierce despair;
