Delia in the Country.

At length from Town the peerless Maid / Disgusted seeks the rural Shade! / Retir'd from Sol's Meridean Beam / Where Zephyr fans the cooling stream / She Yields beneath the sheltering Bowr / To Contemplation's Eye the Hour / Pleas'd with simplicity to live / A Blessing, Cities cannot give.
