DAMON AND SYLVIA, by                 Poet Analysis     Poet's Biography
First Line: Yon wand'ring rill, that marks the hill
Last Line: While damon's heart beat time, sir.
Subject(s): Love


Yon wand'ring rill that marks the hill,
And glances o'er the brae, Sir,
Slides by a bower, where mony a flower
Sheds fragrance on the day, Sir;
There Damon lay, with Sylvia gay,
To love they thought no crime, Sir,
The wild birds sang, the echoes rang,
While Damon's heart beat time, Sir.
