THE BIRTH AND TRIUMP OF VENUS(1740) BY FRANCOIS BOUCHER(1703-1770)

Fly away, all you swarming Cupidos,

don't you know you are anachronisms,

flying there over your just born mother,

and there should only be one of you;

go, or I'll take my own bow, of stronger

make, and shoot you down one by one,

so as to enjoy the charms of paint made

flesh without you mosquitoes of love.
