Мэри Уортли Монтегю (Mary Wortley Montagu) Текст оригинала на английском языке Verses Written in a Garden See how the pair of billing doves With open murmurs own their loves; And, heedless of censorious eyes, Pursue their unpolluted joys; No fears of future want molest The downy quiet of their nest: No int'rest join'd the happy pair, Securely blest in Nature's care, While her dictates they pursue; For constancy is Nature too. Can all the doctrine of the schools, Our maxims, our religious rules, Can learning to our lives ensure, Virtue so bright, or bliss so pure? |
