The Indifferent LOVER OR The Roving Batchelor To a Pleasant new Tune Sung in the last new Comedy called Amphytrion Or Fond Boy FOr Iris I sigh and hourly Dye but not for a Lip nor a languishing Eye She 's fickle and false and there we agree Oh! these are the Vertues that captivate me We neither believe what either can say and neither believing we neither betray 2 'T is civil to swear and say things of Course We mean not the taking for better for worse When present we love when absent agree I think not of Iris nor Iris of me The Legend of Love no Couple can find So easie to part and so easily joyn'd 3 I like not that Lover who'll whimpering stand And wait a whole day to kiss Celias fair hand No Beauty i' th' Town tho' ten times as fair Can ever can ever with Celia Compare How happy am I who hourly find Those fair as his Celia as his kind 4 I am still in the Fashion or Mode-a-la France I think not upon her unless by a chance Iris when present I fancy the best When absent I praise her no more then the rest Iris and Phillis to me are all one So soon I can love and as soon can have done 5 I can love for an hour fair Celia and then I am Cloy'd of the Bliss and Love Iris agen Till tyered of Happiness I do depart Go the next way and give Phillis my Heart Till Cleo appears whose delicate Eye For an hour or two makes me languishing lye 6 I loved all I see when just in the fit Yet can in a Moment my Mistriss forget Now Languish now Love now sigh and complain Now love her now hate her and love her again I admire the Charms in Celias fair face Till Phillis appears to take up her place 7 But of all the Beauties were ever admir'd Whose Company many fond Fops have desir'd Whose every Charm in their Faces so takes That several Coxcombs have dy'd for their sakes I never see any whose faces could Charm So much by their Smiles or Frowns for to harm 8 If Iris Loves me then I can Love her If she loves me not then I can prefer Another before her Or her 'fore another For I can Love one as well as the other My passion to all alike I 'll discover And always ramin an indifferent Lover FINIS Printed for Ch.
