Rime, artless melooiist! to thee belong
The feelings whirls give eloquence to song :
Bright form of tooth !—Tisoidsty's own child!
Thy mica is modest, as thy strains are wild:
Thos skeletal woman in her loveliest dress,
Charsn'st by thy smiles, and wisest with gentleness.
IPlaiostive Ophelia, sweet .Vaitststne, stay!
111 y soul would fain still linger on thy lay :
Thy voice recalls the dreams of love aid joys,
Which childhood fosters, but which age destroys.
1 list entranc'd, and, as the lest notes die,
I feel their power, and own them with a sigh!
