Blest as th' immortal Gods is he  1   
Thy fatal shafts unerring move  2   
Ah! the shepherd's mournful fate  2   
Go, tell Amynta, gentle swain  3   
Yes, fairest proof of beauty's power  3   
In vain you tell your parting lover  4   
Heavy hours are almost past, The  4   
When Delia on the plains appears  5   
If wine and music have the pow'r  5   
Ah! why must words my flame reveal?  6   
Come here, fond youth, whoe'er thou be  7   
If ever thou didst joy to bind  8   
As near a weeping spring reclin'd  9  5 
Too plain, dear youth, those tell-tale eyes  10   
Strephon when you see me fly  11   
When first I saw thee graceful move  12   
Now see my goddess earthly born  12   
'Tis not the liquid brightness of those eyes  13   
Hail to the myrtle shade  14   
Waft me some soft and cooling breeze  15   
While in the bower with beauty blest  16   
When Sappho tun'd the raptur'd strain  16   
Go plaintive sounds, and to the fair  17   
When charming Teraminta sings  18   
My dear mistress has a heart  18   
Let the ambitious favour find  19   
From all uneasy passions free  19   
Oft on the troubled ocean's face  20   
Fly thoughtless youth, th' enchantress fly  20   
Prepar'd to rail, resolv'd to part  21   
Come all ye youths whose hearts e'er bled  22   
On a bank, beside a willow  22   
To the brook and the willow, &c  23   
To fair Fidele's grassy tomb  24   
When here Lucinda first we came  24   
When lovely woman stoops to folly  25   
Tell me my Strephon that I die  25   
From place to place, forlorn, I go  25   
There is one dark and sullen hour  26   
Fair and soft and gay and young  26   
Tho' cruel you seem to my pain  27   
Ye shepherds and nymphs, &c.  27   
Ye happy swains whose hearts are free  28   
When your beauty appears  29   
As Amoret with Phyllis sat  29   
Can love be controul'd by advice  29   
Mortals, learn your lives to measure  30   
Bid me when forty winters more  30   
Tell me not I my time mispend  31   
Why cruel creature, why so bent  31   
Forever, Fortune, wilt thou prove  32   
Young I am and yet unskill'd  32   
Say not, Olinda, I despise  33   
Dear Chloe while thus beyond measure  33   
Away, let nought to love displeasing  34   
O Nancy, wilt thou go with me  35   
On Belvidera's bosom lying  37   
Boast not, mistaken swain, thy art  37   
My love was fickle once and changing  38   
Not, Celia, that I juster am  38   
It is not, Celia, in our power  39   
Say, Myra, why is gentle love  39   
Cynthia frowns whene'er I woo her  40   
Love's but the frailty of the mind  40   
Fair Amoret is gone astray  40   
In Chloris all soft charms agree  41   
Yes Fulvia is like Venus fair  41   
I tell thee, Charmion, could I time retrieve  42   
Damon if you will be believe [sic]  42   
What! put off with one denial  43   
Let not love on me bestow  43   
Why we love and why we hate  44   
Dear Colin, prevent my warm blushes  44   
Good madam, when ladies are willing  44   
When first I sought fair Caelia's love  45   
Corinna cost me many a prayer  45   
All my past life is mine no more  46   
Yes, I'm in love, I feel it now  46   
Ye little loves that round her wait  47   
Love and folly were at play  47   
Amorous swain to Juno pray'd, An  47   
Swain, thy hopeless passion smother  48   
Cupid instruct an amorous swain  48   
Love's a dream of mighty treasure  49   
Tell me no more I am deceiv'd  49   
Mistaken fair, lay Sherlock by  50   
Chloe's the wonder of her sex  50   
When Orpheus went down, &c.  50   
Vain are the charms of white and red  51   
Chloe brisk and gay appears  51   
Oh! turn away those cruel eyes  52   
In vain, fond youth, thy tears give o'er  52   
Merchant to secure his treasure, The  53   
Celia, hoard thy charms no more  53   
As the snow in vallies lying  54   
Celia, too late you would repent  55   
If the quick spirit of your eye  55   
Late when love I seem'd to slight  56   
Ah! Chloris, could I now but sit  56   
Graces and the wand'ring loves, The  57   
Say, lovely dream, &c.  58   
Come little infant love me now  58   
Gentle air, thou breath of lovers  59   
She loves and she confesses too  60   
'Tis now since I sat down before  61   
Pursuing beauty, men descry  62   
Stella and Flavia every hour  62   
When gentle Celia first I knew  63   
When first upon your tender cheek  64   
As Ariana young and fair  65   
When first I saw Lucinda's face  66   
Chloris, yourself you so excel  66   
Strephon has fashion, wit and youth  66   
At Cynthia's feet I sigh'd, I wept [sic]  67   
Wine, wine in the morning  68   
In vain, dear Chloe, you suggest  68   
Should some perverse malignant star  69   
Why will Florella while I gaze  69   
It was a friar of orders gray  71   
Turn, gentle hermit of the dale  74   
Of Leinster fam'd for maidens fair  78   
When all was wrapt in dark midnight  80   
'Twas when the seas were roaring  82   
All in the Downs the fleet was moor'd  83   
Daphnis stood pensive in the shade  65   
Despairing beside a clear stream  86   
As on a summer's day  88   
Alexis shunn'd his fellow swains [sic]  89   
One morning very early, one morning in the spring  90   
Sun was sunk beneath the hill, The  91   
What beauties does Flora disclose?  92   
Far in the windings of a vale  93   
Western sky was purpled o'er, The [sic]  95   
O'er moorlands and mountains, &c.  97   
Ye shepherds so chearful and gay [sic]  98   
My banks they are furnish'd with bees  99   
Why will you my passion reprove  101   
Ye shepherds give air to my lay [sic]  102   
Come shepherds we'll follow the hearse  104
