Epigram 121. To Mrs. Alice Nevill, his sister
From A Chain of Golden Poems (1658)
Relationships
Y'are virtuous, young, and handsome; and I dare
With Sydneyes Queen of Corinth you compare.
Between you I no difference can write;
But she was slighted, you your servants slight,
You may relent, and I do hope you will:
If prayers prevail not, Cupid use thy skill.
