From the Ohio Farmer
See Ptys-poising on The rocks
Her lip, half parted in smile:
Free flow her golden FURNISHED locks,
And flowers fill her hands-the while
Sweet Pam around her, hoTers near,
And charms with song, her dreaming ear
Sweet PHYS, sought by all the SWANS
Of blest arcadas glorious grove, -a.
Yet colby views their wretched paas,
And coldy sights their vows Of love,
More dear to her the winding brooks,
The meadows fair, the sylvan hooks.
More dear to her springs fowcry lap.
Where turks the shaggy g Lord of Hills, =
Whose reedy pipes, SO oft, entrap
Unwary maids. with willy trills.
She too, now lists that silyery song
Oh Pam what crimes to thee belong
On her fair cheek, the rising blush
Contesses all the god would hear,
While through her lids soft tear-drops gush-
The blended tide Of loye and fear.
Ter heavlng breast such tremors swell
What art, but Love, such fears could queli?
As on him bends that tender look,
The wood-god burns with lore and pride;
He cast aside his shepherds crook,
And casts his light short cloak aside
He springs--whiie forests feel the shock
To clasp that rainbow on the rock.
But Borcas-rudcst Of the gods
Beholds that far too tender scene,
And rushes, borne on thunder clouds,
With vengeance pictured in his men.
lie seized the virgin IN his arms, Ii.
And dashed to earth her blooming charms.
He too had sought that radiant face,
Had sought that true and tender heart:
But Boreas wooes with stormy grace,
Unblessed with Pans seductive art
Scorned now by her, at one fell blow
Both maid and rival ruin know.
But 10 the gods rebpke such wrath
Pan, long the dear delight Of all
They rear Bine-tree on the path
To mark the beauteous msden's fall
Where Pan may lead his bleatng herds,
And list at times, her whispered words.
