English poem
Song XIV. the Mansion of Peace
by Anonymous
A ROSE from her bosom has stray'd. I'll seek to replace it with art; But no, 'twill her slumbers invade, I'll wear it fond youth next my heart.
Alas filly rose had'st thou known, 'Twas Daphne that gave thee thy place Thou ne'er from thy station had'st flown Her bosom, the mansion of peace.
