And hopes that vct'ry is won.
But mark the sad wretch, by his sorrows wori,

And witness the weight Of his signs;
But signs will not reach to the depth of his woe,
So deep in his bosom it lies.
His pleasures all fed, apd his happiness gone,
A world he would give for tear;
But tears are withheld, he sits signing alone.
And moulders away with his care.
