Excufe me, dear, if aught amiss was said, 790 Ah mylov'dlord! 'twas much unkind (fhecry'd) Then, Sir, be cautious, nor too rashly deem; Heav'n knows how feldom things are what they feem! 805 Confult your reason, and you foon fhall find With that she leap'd into her Lord's embrace With well diffembled virtue in her face. 811 He hugg'd her close, and kiss'd her o'er and o'er, Disturb'd with doubts and jealoufies no more; Both, pleas'd and blefs'd, renew'd their mutual Vows, A fruitful wife, and a believing spouse, 815 Thus ends our tale, whose moral next to make, Let all wife husbands hence example take ; And pray, to crown the pleasure of their lives, To be fo well deluded by their wives. |
