Gem of the midly-clo'ing year,
On natures breast reclining!
Oh. who would leave thy wildness here
For bowers, in beauty shining:

Thy flowers, like hope, shall hnarlsll'sti!i,
When all, but thine, have faded.

Ger loves last mansion blending, q
And sinks, like day in summer skies
Or evenings star descending.
Smile on her humble couch Of rest
Aud droop not thus in sorrow,
For sure the regions Of the b!'st,
Shall be her home tomorrow.
Go-and with fading garlands bind
The dark, stern brew "l madness!
And melt that joy-descrted rsind
To more than childhuod's sadness.
Tell her o. him, whose lowly grave
Shall meet her dark eve. never:
Hi. pillow is the stormy wave,
The deep his home, forever!
Then rest thee, autumn's lingering Hover
In life's last fragrance lying,
And droop along thy golden bower,
Sill lovely, though in dying.
And thou shalt seem, while fading there
In ruin calm reposing,
Like virtue on this scene OF care
Her weary eye-'ias closing!
