- The flowers anew returning seasons bring!
But beauty faded has no second spring.- Lobbing, The First Pastoral (1709)
To Miss Charlotte Pulteney in Her Mother’s Arms
- Timely blossom, Infant fair,
Fondling of a happy pair.
- And thou shalt in thy daughter see,
This picture, once, resembled thee.
- Wearied then and glad of rest,
Like the linnet in the nest.
