• Then will I visit with a wand’ring kiss
  The vale of lilies and the bower of bliss;
  And where the beauteous region both divide
  Into two milky ways, my lips shall slide
  Down those smooth alleys, wearing as they go
  A tract for lovers on the printed snow;
  Thence climbing o’er the swelling Apennine,
  Retire into thy grove of eglantine,
  Where I will all those ravish’d sweets distil
  Through Love’s alembic, and with chemic skill
  From the mix’d mass one sovereign balm derive,
  Then bring that great elixir to thy hive.

  • Quoted in Gershon Legman, The Limerick (1970)
