Then why fhou'd I feek to debafe her to mine 7 No! henceforth efteem mall govern defire, : And in due fubjeftion, Return warm affeftion; To mew that felf-love inflames not my fire, And that no other fwain can more humble admire. When paffion mall ceafe to rage in my breafl Then quiet return-ing, Shall hum my fad mourning, And, lord of myfelf, in abfolute reft, I'll hug the condition which, heav'n fhall think beft. Thus friendship unmix'd, and wholly refin'd, May ftill be reipefted, Tho' love is rejefted: Eliza fhall own, tho' to love not inclined, That fhe ne'er had a friend like her lover refign'ii.
