On every object through the gddy world,
Which fashion to thy dazzled eye presents,
Fresh is the gloss of newness, look, dear youth,
Oh look but not admire, oh let not these
Rase from thy heart the fair records
Which youth and education planted there;
Let not affections full impetuous tide,
Which riots in thy generous breast, be checked
BY selfish cares, nor let the idle jeers
Of laughing fools make thee forget myself!
When didst thou hear tender tale ofwoe
And feel thy heart at rest have not seen
In thy swoln eye the tear of sympathy,
The milk of human kindness when didst thou,
With envy ranking, hear rival praised
When didst thou slight the wretched
When despise the humble, modest suit of poverty
These virtues still be thine, nor ever learn
To look with cold eyes on the charities
Of brother, or of parents think on those
Whose anxious care thro' childhoods slippery path
Sustained thy feeble steps, whose every wish
Is waited still to thee remember these
Deep in thy heart while men,'ry holds her seat,
And oft as to thy mind thou shalt recall
The dear companions of thy early youth,
Mates in the sport, and rivals in the strife
Of every generous art-remember me.

ON THE DEATH OF AN ONLY SISTER.
When genius, loneliness, and grace have fled,
And virtue sought her mansion in the sky,
What rest can reach the mourner's aching head
What hope allay that heartfelt agony?
'Ts but the hope in heaven, the thought that soon
This earth and its decisive joys shall fade;
Her duty done, her faith approved, the soul
Shall find those blessed seats her God hath made
How oft in quick succession death hath stampt
On each glad face the mark of deepest wo;
IT'S but month"; and manly worth and truth,
Talent and virtue sunk beneath his blow.
Next MARY dies, and all that gladdened life,
Mirth marked with innocence, the poets strain,
The polished manner, and the buoyant heart
Are gone, and rendered all our transport vain.
But weep not thus, though once parents care
Shielded from i'll your steps in early years,
When he was gone, though long sisters love
Sustained and blest you in this vale of tears:
Oh, weep not thus nor on earth's narrow scene
OF gloom and sadness fix your mourning eye;
Raise it to Heaven, there see your MARY still
Brightest among the angels Of the sky. G.
Referring to the previous death of young gen.
tleman.
