As long as Moco's happy Tree shall grow, While Berries crackle, or while Mills shall go; While smoking Streams from Silver Spouts shall glide, Or China's Earth receive the sable Tyde; While Coffee shall to British Nymphs be dear; While fragrant Steams the bended Head shall chear; Or grateful Bitters shall delight the Tast; So long her Honour, Name, and Praise shall last! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...AFTER A NOISY NIGHT by LAURE-ANNE BOSSELAAR THIS MORNING, GOD by LAURE-ANNE BOSSELAAR THE CAFé FILTRE by PAUL BLACKBURN IN PRAISE OF COFFEE by JACQUES DELILLE UPON RECEIPT OF A POUND OF COFFEE IN 1863 by MARY TUCKER LAMBERT A FAREWELL TO LONDON IN THE YEAR 1715 by ALEXANDER POPE |
