MR. FENN'O,
The jollowing beaut J ul imitation of Shenstone originally appeared
in the American Mcrcut y—by giving it a place in your paper, you
uill oblige ajriend of the Author y and A Subscriber.
We hear that a subscription is open in Lon
don for the purpose of building a large and ele
gant CHAPEL for the Rev. Dr. Prieflley.
The Prefulent of the United States has been
pleased to appoint John Brooks, Kfq. Marshal
of Massachusetts DiltriA, vice Jonathan Jackson
Esq. appointed Infpetlor. '
George Green, Mate, in behalf of himfelf and
the crew of the Brig South-Carolina, prefem
their moit grateful thanks to Capt. James Dods
Dr. Ilaac Rand, and the Mare of the British ship
Nancy, for the great humanity and kind atten
tion they paid to them, alter they were taken
from the wreck of the said Brig_„„ which they
had been four days exposed to and enduring the
utmolr dilirefs, without any thing but
urine to exist on And particularly for the <r e .
nerous care they paid to al!evj ate i!,e pains al,d
reitore their mangled limbs to their use.
My hoqfe was an inn for the poor,
The beggar was often mv guest,
They fmil'd as they went from my door,
Their gratitude fweetcn'd my reft.—
My Delia was pleas'd to bellow—
What Providence freely had given
She fhar'd with the children of woe,
And bade them feel thankful to heaven.
While thus in fwect rapture I view'd
The scene which my fancy had drawn,
My feet wamler'd far thro' the wood,
And insensibly trode the gay lawn ;
The sweet briar lent me a rose,
An emblem of life and its cares,
A moment it buds and it blows,
But thorns are the burthen it bears.
I smelt of the fragrance it shed,
'Twas (weet as the breathings of morn—
I prefs'd it—low droop'd its fair head,
And nothing remain'd but the thorn—
In a moment my senses returned,
I funk to the depths of despair,
And as the foft vision I mourn'd,
The cries of distress fill'd the air:
The shepherd lay frtug \h his bed
While dogs tore the lambs of the fold;
Too late to their rescue I fled,
Their lives to the prowlers were fold.
No more shall their bleatings delight;
No more fhallthe innocent tram,
In frolicfome gambols unite,
Or fportiveiy fltip o'er the plain.
I wept o'er their carcases torn,
Their pleasures Ijad scarcely began ;
But perhaps had they fern the next morn,
I heir lives had been flaughter'd by man :
My mind thus from ills of mv own
Turn d to those of a lower degree,
I tho't I was wietrffed alone,
But brutes were more wretched than me.
Ah Corydon wbv will vou love !
Why feed the foft paflion in vain !
No sighs her com paflion can move,
She Imiles at the tale of your pain~-
To love her alas} is delight,
'tis blifi to my heart,
Tho'defpair fpreadsaround me her night,
et despair can her bleflings impart.
She is fair as the pride of the vale,
The lily that vies with the snow,
Her breath ;s as sweet as the gale,
Where clover-fields fragrantly blow;
Her temper is sweet and serene,
Here bosom is pure and refiri'd,
Exprcfljon enlivens her mien,
And virtue enriches her mind.
She is chadc as the flceces that fly
On the wings of the tempefl of snow,
Soft pleasure oft beams in her eye,
She can weep at the language of woe;
Her lips utter accents of truth,
Her voice is the music of even,
Her face wears the features of youth
Of youth in the garden of "heaven.
And when with the swain ofherctsoice
She shall wed (may the moment be nigh}'
Tho' bleeding, my heart shall rejoice,
She is happy—l'll bless her—and die:
Not a tear from my eyes shall be shed,
Not a sigh from my bosom arise,
In secret I'll lay down my head,
And wait for the fair in the fkics.
My paflion she deign'd to approve :
There fancy depi&ed our joy,
'Twas pleasure unmingled with woe,
'Twas happiness free from alloy,
'Twas Eden replanted below.
Reclin'd on her bosom of love,
As playful, and happy as May,
Lay an infaht as pure as a dove,
And bright as the young star of day;
The rose budded fair in its face,
Truth and innocence beam'd from its eyes,
Its smiles were the symptoms of grace.
Its charms were the charms of the Ikies.
With partial dtftra&ion I ftray'd,
There tho't of the maiden I love,
To the feet of the fair one I love,
I told her my paflion anew,
WHEN night Hied hei folttude round,
And Cynthia iHumin'd the sky,
When dew drops bcfpangled the ground,
And light mill flew wantonly by;
Alone to a neighbouring grove,
On the wings of delusion I flew
While rapture my senses betray'd
