happy pair whom love invites
Unto each others arms,
And Hymen's strongest bond untes
In matrimonial charms
May they enjoy that bliss supreme
That many seek in vain,
Which oft has been the poets theme
And shall be yet again.
Nothing shall e'er disturb their Joys,
While on life's golden streams
They think no of children's toys
Or fancy's fav'rite dreams.
Ole bachelors! attend-think
Upon your lonely fate,
And pray that you eer long may drink
The joys Of that blest state.
Cast off your toys for Hymen's joys,
Sweet girls do now abound;
Partake Of this Angelic bliss,
While yeti may be found;
Come, take for life lovely wife,
The patterns set before you;
Or else when death shall stop your breath
No fair one shall deplore you
