Metaphor in Context
"Belinda, since I cannot move,
Thy icy breast to joy and love,
Since all my grief and all my care,
Serve but to heighten my despair;
Make some requital for my pain,
And give me back my heart again,
And oh! instruct the roving guest,
No more to wander from my breast.
Thy icy breast to joy and love,
Since all my grief and all my care,
Serve but to heighten my despair;
Make some requital for my pain,
And give me back my heart again,
And oh! instruct the roving guest,
No more to wander from my breast.
