LORACP, BOOR I. ODE 23. FREELY IMITATED.
ADDRESSED TO MISS
ON HER PREPARING TO DEPART FOR LITCHF4LD

'ROM LONDON.

Why, gentle Maid, to Litchfield fly,
To seek a tender mother's care,
When at thy service here am I,
Of all thy friends the most sincere ?

Should the night breeze, enatnour'd grown,
-- (Through key-hole of' thy Chamber-door),
Breathe its despair in querulnu tone,
Or tiny mouse scud o'er the floor ;

Quick: would thy snowy bosom beat,
Arid kovely lona betray surprize ;
-Ali this is sexual; but why treat
With laugh and start my vows and sighs ?

No canting hypocrife'ani
quit thy runther's apYon•string,
And on thy finger let me try
-That pledge of truth—the Brid#l Ring.
