21 ページ - THE wretch, condemn'd with life to part, Still, still on hope relies ; And every pang that rends the heart, Bids expectation rise. Hope, like the glimmering taper's light, Adorns and cheers the way ; And still, as darker grows the night, Emits a brighter ray.
196 ページ - SONG. In vain you tell your parting lover, You wish fair winds may waft him over. Alas ! what winds can happy prove, That bear me far from what I love ? Alas ! what dangers on the main Can equal those that I sustain, From slighted vows, and cold disdain?

But when they learn that you have blest Another with your heart, They'll bid aspiring passion rest, And act a brother's part: Then, lady...

But when without art, Your kind thoughts you impart, When your love runs in blushes through every vein; When it darts from your eyes, when it pants in your heart, Then I know you're a woman again. There's a passion and pride In our sex...

Cherub of Heaven, that from thy secret stand Dost note the follies of each mortal here, Oh, if Eliza's steps employ thy hand, Blot the sad legend with a mortal tear. Nor, when she errs, through passion's wild extreme, Mark then her course, nor heed each trifling wrong ; Nor, when her sad attachment...
70 ページ - A PLACE in thy memory, dearest. Is all that I claim: To pause and look back when thou hearest The sound of my name. Another may woo thee, nearer. Another may win and wear; I care not though he be dearer, If I am remembered there.
72 ページ - IF THE ATHEIST'S WORDS BE TRUE! Oh! if the atheist's words be true — If those we seek to save, Sink, and in sinking from our view Are lost beyond the grave ! If life thus closed, how dark and drear Would this bewildered earth appear — Scarce worth the dust it gave: A tract of black, sepulchral gloom, One yawning, ever-opening tomb. Blest be that strain of high belief, More heaven-like, more sublime, Which says that souls that part in grief, Part only for a time! That, far beyond this speck of...
