HERE IN OUR FAIRY BOWERS WE DWELL.

Thomas Gent

Here, in our fairy bowers, we dwell, Women our idol, life's best treasure! Echo enchanted joys to tell, Our feast of laugh, of love, and pleasure.

Say, is not this then bliss divine, Beauty's smiles and rosy wine? Eternal mirth and sunshine reign, For grief we cannot find the leisure;

Night's social gods have banish'd pain, Morn lights us to increasing pleasure. Say, is not this then bliss divine, Beauty's smiles and rosy wine?
