Analysis of I Lookd & In A Moment Run
Thomas Parnell 1679 (Dublin) – 1718
I look & in a moment run
The poison thro' my veins
Nor Celia think your self too young
to give me amorous pains
When heaven did the Sun create
He shone as bright as now
& wth the fires which guild them yet
The infant starrs did glow.
