Pagina 376 - The many rend the skies with loud applause ; So Love was crowned, but Music won the cause. The prince, unable to conceal his pain, Gazed on the fair Who caused his care. And sighed and looked, sighed and looked, Sighed and looked, and sighed again ; At length, with love and wine at once oppressed, The vanquished victor sunk upon her breast.
