Mr. Parks, If you'll insert the following translation of
Anacreon, in your next Gazette, you'll oblige, Yours, &c.
CUPID AND THE BEE.
Among some roses, with dull sleep opprest, 
A bee, fatigu'd with labour, took its rest.
Cupid, by chance, its habitation found, 
But saw no insect 'till he felt the wound!
