On The Death Of John MLeod, Esq, (第1/1页)
on the death of john m'leod, esq, brother to a young lady, a particular friend of the author's. sad thy tale, thou idle page, and rueful thy alarms: death tears the brother of her love from isabella's arms. sweetly deckt with pearly dew the m rose may blow; but cold successive noontide blasts may lay its beauties low. fair on isabella's morn the sun propitious smil'd; but, long ere noon, succeeding clouds succeeding hopes beguil'd. fate oft tears the bosom chords that nature fi strung; so isabella's heart was form'd, and so that heart was wrung. dread omnipotence alone heal the wound he gave— point the brimful grief-worn eyes to ses beyond the grave. virtue's blossoms there shall blow, and fear no withering blast; there isabella's spotless worth shall happy be at last.
