A BALLAD
Upon an Infant in a Cradle.
H, happy babe ! what wishes vain
Th, innocence and peace excite 1
Ab ! couldft thou but through life maintain
The bliss which gives such pure delight!
Sweet is th, sleep ! while vifiant gay.
The friends oj infantine repose,
Before thy dawning fancy play,
Nor vanijb, till th, eyes unclofe.
Th, foft carenes, void of art,
Tby playful Jearlefnefs of barm,
Shall to my Dewing foul impart
Some genuine drops of healing balm.
Th, owning eyes a father please,
Thy childijb look a mother charms ;
In turn thy little frame they seize ;
Ibyfafeft cradle is their arms.
Ibou rising hope of all thy race,
Wbofe peace upon thy smiles depend ;
If jo, but brighten in th, face,
O'er ev'r, face it; rays extend.
Ab .' happy babe! what wishes vain
Th, innocence and peace excite !
O' could/l thou but thro life maintain
The blif "which gives such pure delight !
Free from regret, or vain desires,
Each object offer'd to thy view
Ib, fpotlefi foul with joy inspires,
And wakens pleasures ever new.
Th, ver, weakness gives thee pow'r ;
Th, earliefl will seems law and right ;
And ev'n the aged, rough, and four.
Melt into foftntf at th, fight.
If yet blind fate unknowing why.
The bitter cup of evil fill, -
%ck to thy cradle will Ifly,
To solace me for ev'ry ill.
Or if thou chance to heave a sigh,
Nor long, nor bitter is thy woe;
Thy ready finile is ever nigh,
Tho' down th, cheek a tear ma, flow.
Ab ! happy babe! what withes vain
Th, innocence and peace excite !
Ah ! couldfl thou but thro' life maintain
The bliss which gives fucb pure delight!
4
But no ! for fee, with rapid wing
Approaching forms the profpea lour.
And cares and crosses with them bring
Thy /ports to mar, th, joys to four.
Ab ! happy babe ! what wishes vain!
Tby innocence and peace exeite !
Ah ! couldfl thou but thro' life maintain
The bliss which gives such pure delight!
Seat of the Muses.
Ev'n I, ho we'er I Hill preserve
A taste for nature's artle/s charms, •
Start, high, and tremble ev'ry n^rve,
With frequent fears, and quick alarms.
Nov falfe, now fickle proves feme friend;
Now death feme lov'd companion steals ;
Now faireft hopes in visions end—
Alas ! each day fre/h woe reveals !
