VERSES TO y BELOVED YOUNG FRIEND.
oh, the last look is hard to bear
Even of stock or old grey stone,
Or any thing to childhood dear
Which memory lees &c dwell upon.
But fond affection never r,1vei
SO thrilling, so severe pain,
AS looking on face beloved
We know we ne'er can see again.
Then, Mary, when with hasty gaze
l saw thine eye bcwillercd roam,
For the last time, DER Yarrows bracs,
And thy dear kinsmans happy home,--
feltc pang--it was not grief,
But something language never bore,
From which the soul found no relief
Child of darling world before
Alightning fash, a lur,J glcam
Der pillows of a da,isomn sea,
momentary tcverish dream
OF time and ofctcrnity
Woe to the guiieful tongue that bred
This disappointment and this pain
Cold hearted villain on his head
A poets madison remain
Now thou hast left lie forest .IaGe,
BY sorrows deep 10 thee endcared,
Where more beloved was never maid,
Nor maiders feeling, more rcvcrcd,
And o, may blessings there abide,
Delights unbounded and untold
Where Indus rolls his sluggish tide
Der glowing gems and sands ofgold
And Indian oceans wait the breeze
Ofrcnovated health to thee;
And odours of Arabia please
Thy every sense from bower and tree.
And long as beats this kindred heart
My love shall be as it hath been
There shalt thou occupy thy part
Though half the world lie us between
