From the Freeman's Journal,
To the Printer of the Freeman's Journal,
SIR,
The following lines were composed by an acquaintance
on a late journey with a friend.—As they are founded
on fad, and are descriptive of those fympathetfck,
delicate feelings, which vibrate to the flighted inci
dents of joy or sorrow, and with which none but men
of sense are acq tainted, I presume they will not be
unacceptable to your readers.
BENEVOLU S.
i.
TH E morning was fair and serene,
The fields clad in verdant array,
The birds added life to the scene,
As they sportively fang on the spray.
The dew-drops bespangled each tree,
Each herb and each flower with gems,
The eye was delighted to fee
How they sparkled in Phoebus's beams.
3-
All nature was cheerful and gav,
Not a creature dejected or fad,
Hilarity hail'd the new day ;
For heaven bade all things be glad.
- 4-'
As I travel'd with Socius alor
And with him partook of ti s,
In an instant my joy was unft ? „. 6 ,
By a warbler that fcream'd in distress,
5-
A red-breast I quickly beheld,
With its feet to a tendril confin'd;
To pity my bowels did yield,
To relieve my whole foul was inclin'd.
6.
Oh ! Socius, I cri'd—but he flew
Without giving me time to fay more,
By sympathy Socius knew
What companion but wifh'd to implore.
7.
That instant a hawk from the sky,
Was plunging to seize on his prey,
But Socius so nimbly did fly,
That he fnatch'd the poor captive away.
8.
Then, pressing it close to his breast,
With meltings of joy in his eye,
Go captive, he cri'd, and be free,
So he let the sweet warbler fly.
