A MiracleAnonymous
B
Love hath received his sight!
Which many hundred year
Hath not beheld the light.
By Cynthia in his eyes,
As first have made him see,
And then have made him wise.
For them that laugh the while!
Nor wake for them that sleep,
Nor sigh for them that smile!
That Love doth now behold,
As Love is turned to Duty
That’s neither blind nor bold.
To be of double kind;
In giving Love his sight
And striking Folly blind.
