LONE's BILLET-nOUX.

Love wrote bIllet-what do YOU think
Was Loves paper, pen and ink
Not such things as mortals use
Ink OF sable, quill of goose,
Pewter stand, and paper wove
Out OF rags, won't do for love.
He cut the heart of a dove in two.
And mixed the drops with honey dew;
In an amber vase he placed it then,
And went to seek for a lovers pen.
He pluck'd ray from the setting sun,
plume Of light, as the day is done.
For Love IS warm, though night nvades,
And Love is bright among the shades
lie waited till the stars arose,
Ere he his billet would compose,
he wrote on ose-leaves, newly blown,
Because their fragrance is his own.
4 glass Of cappillalre he quaffed,
Then laughing wrote, and writing laughed,
"We were for each other born,
We are from each other torn;
"W Where we should, then let US Be,
"Iwith you. and you with me-"
Love copied then his billet -doux,
One tor me and one for you;
he sealed them with his own dear kiss,
and sent them by the mail ofbliss .-PERcrvA1

Soon the storm grew loud and dark

Threatening clouds soon gathered round
Then my sweetest hopes all ftrd me.
When my vessel ran aground.
For succour then stretch'd my arms
Friends and foes all gazing stood,

Would not let friends bravethe floo..
