MY OWN LOVED NATIVE LAND.

MY OWN LOVED NATIVE LAND.
My fancy CLOVIS, poetic ,ardor springs,
Aud sings with Joy Of past delightful things;
Records the scenes Ofpast departed years
Which rangd in order to the mind appears;
The long forgot her gentle hand conveys,
Returns, and soft upon the vision plays.
1 trace my native land with heartfelt joy,
And share parental love without alloy:-
spring to meet whom Nature hath alli'd,
Whom sweet affection band have firmly it'd;
Their kindred flock Of bright expanded dawn.
Fair as the new born star that gilds the morn.
Dear native place Fair city ofthe plain!
Where peace aid plenty bless the labring swain;
Where varied nature opes the brightest scene
OF soil luxuriant robed in vernal green;
OF has it been my past delightful lot
To view thy glades, and cultivated cot,
To tread thy Wales, thy ever murm'ring rills,
And beauteous church that toppd the neighb'ring
hills.
Thee have rapt'rous viewd when nought could
I've rovd thy hills, thy verdant groves and dales,
Thy pleasant grots, and dark sequester'd wales;
Where sings the tunefnl bird, where rivers flow,
And on whose banks the woodland roses blow.
Delightful cline on active wings fly
To view thy shores, and bright cerulean sky;
Thy blest retreats where arts and virtues reign,
And bless thy borders to the watery main.
How oft in youthful days the youth I've seen,
In antic gambols sporting on the green
Rush from the opening school, and college hall,
And in the air transmit the whirling ball
How oft my eyes have seen the joyous train
OF youths and maidens fill the shady lane,
Recumbent sit, and then explore the vale
Where boom'd the rose, and blu'd violets pale:
Then seek the shades while sultry summer glow'd,
As sportive Maids, when the Zephyrs blow'd;
Retire till eve, from summers blazing noon,
And wake the dance beneath the evning moon!
How oft at eve, when Vesper led his train
Have walked forth to hear the sounding main!
How have heard the minstrels Of the groves,
Nigh the green shades attune their tender loves;
And seen on silver lakes, or chrystal floods,
Bright Lunadance andpierce the trembling floods !!
An, my loved native land! shall no more
Thee, thee revisit safe, and fruitful shore
Shall thee no more revisit, did say.
Where tuneful nations wake the matin lay
All yes in vision pure my active fancy fiies
Through northern climes, and fair New England
skies;
Her dark empowering groves, and silver foods.
Irriguous vallies, and her sverdant woods
Whose umbrage dark, and stiffness might inspire
A patriot soul with philosophic fire.
These are thy charms, lov'd country! charms like
these!
With such my rapturd spirit e'er agrees:-
There may dwell, where have wonted been,
And spend my future years with joy serene;
There may reach to lifes remotest span,
In that last, best and safe retreat of man,
