Chaste Muse!⁠—well⁠—if you must, you must)⁠—the veil

Thrown back a moment with the glancing hand,

While the o’erpowering eye, that turns you pale,

Flashes into the heart:⁠—All sunny land

Of Love! when I forget you, may I fail

To⁠—say my prayers⁠—but never was there planned

A dress through which the eyes give such a volley,

Excepting the Venetian Fazzioli.
