Smooth are his words, his voice as honey sweet,
Yet war is in his heart, and dark deceit!

Moschus

If any one a wandering Cupid see,
The little fugitive belongs to me.
And if he tell what path the rogue pursues,
My kisses shall reward him for the news:
But if he bring me back the boy I miss,
I'll give him something sweeter than a kiss.
