ev'ry eye that knew no cause to weep,
And peaceful minds were hush'd in pleasing sleep,
Two virgin nymphs, whom Love had left forlorn,
Ne'er clos'd their weeping eyes, from eve to morn:
For Strephon's absence, Daphne's tears were shed,
And Hebe mourn'd her faithful Collin dead;
Their sorrows were not to each other known,
Alike they mourn'd, and silent was their moan;
Awhile they wept, 'till one the silence broke;
Thus Hebe answer'd, and thus Daphne spoke.
