Tie PROSPECT of SPRING.
NOW behold the Spring returning*
Nature pate e the pleating (cenef
See the roly (pfogled morning s
Breathing oders o’er the plain.
View-the glad creation fthiling,

Now lac frjgalßccs.arc.toiling,. • .
Roaming .o’er the iow’ry glade.
Lo 1 rhe profpea now ir.c reales,
See the Orchards all in bloom.
Softly plays ihefragrant breezes*
Wafting roind a fweenperfume. - *
Sec the Virgin’schcek hem blooming, J
Lovchev wiihing bofcih heaves;
See the kindling god Bluihing
Ev’ry pleating grace revival
Now the f Lambs tn iportive ^.nbols
O’er the verdant p allures play,
Ever harmless in their rambles.
Always innocent and gay.- c
Hark, the (fond of bublirg fountains*
Puddling.through the now’ry vale,
See the green embellifh’d mountains
WavingJto the balmy gale. ,
Now the grateful Hy mn of nature*
/ Seems profufely pour’d abroad;
pleating Imiles in every creature*
Every thing displays a.GOD.
