Transcription:
Our cheerful Saint this Emblem traces,
In playful Fancy to discover
How by your aid, all holy Graces
May wait upon your favor’d Lover.
This faith, intensely pure and bright,
No Vapours blot, no wand’rings ma[r]e;
For till your Eye’s celestial Light,
H[av been its] sacred guiding [Star]:
[Hope] too is his; her soothing [Pow’r]
[Bide] many a blissful [Vision] rise,
And whispers each approaching Hour
Those facing Dreams may realize.
Then Lady let your kind Regard
For him combine the sainted three:
His faith accept, his Hope reward
And crown them with your Charity.
