by George Granville Lansdowne, Baron (1667 - 1735)

So well Corinna likes the joy
Language: English 
So well Corinna likes the joy,
She vows she'll never more be coy;
She drinks eternal draughts of pleasure,
Eternal draughts will not suffice.
Ah, give me more, she cries,
'Tis all too little measure.
