Title:     Epigram On An Amorous Doctor
Author: Samuel Taylor Coleridge [More Titles by Coleridge]

From Rufa's eye sly Cupid shot his dart
And left it sticking in Sangrado's heart.
No quiet from that moment has he known,
And peaceful sleep has from his eyelids flown.
And opium's force, and what is more, alack!
His own orations cannot bring it back.
In short, unless she pities his afflictions,
Despair will make him take his _own prescriptions_.

[The end]
Samuel Taylor Coleridge's poem: Epigram On An Amorous Doctor
