Cloris And Fanny.
By Thomas Moore
Cloris! if I were Persia's king, I'd make my graceful queen of thee; While FANNY, wild and artless thing, Should but thy humble handmaid be. There is but one objection in it-- That, verily, I'm much afraid I should, in some unlucky minute, Forsake the mistress for the maid.
