The swing.

Lets leave the du to pay their court
In falss and formal phrases,
The dancers TO the r cruel sport
OF tramp ing down the dsisss;
While we reheaf the blither plays
or chIldhood's merry msrsine,
Ere Innocence was spoiled by praise,
Or danped by FASHIONS scorning
When, only yet by wood birds taught,
Sweet music thou wouldst sing;
And, though to earth for ever caught,
Heaven was not gerry far we thought,
While upward we did swing.
Slipped through the hour.glass with its sand,
Are all those memehts sunuy;
Faded that baby fairy land
OF gold. and milk, and hsney;
But Time, that with lis sober rule
Will frolic spirits tether,
Hath only taught US 10 his sch 0ol
How close we cling together.
0 blest. when acting childheod's play
Such happy thoughts can bring!
Then is't not rare, my bright one, say,
From tagging dance and drowsy lay,
To turn aside and swing1

Hence hence I. Ye shall not see me when die,

From this undaunted breast the gasp, or groan.

Starts DER my temples. Wipe il not away.
Shame ON your tears. Leave alone with Death.
For will meet him a brave should,
And hurl defiance Ut him.
