And silent is the cedar grove;
Each breeze suspended seems to say--
"Now, Leline, for thy Roundelay!"

My Delia's lids are clos'd in rest;
Ah! were her pillow but my breast!
Go, dreams! one gentle word impart,
In whispers place me by her heart;
While near her door I'll fondly stray,
And sooth her with my Roundelay.

But, ah! the Night draws in her shade,
And glimm'ring stars reluctant fade:
Yet sleep, my love! nor may'st thou feel
The pangs which griefs like mine reveal:
Adieu! for Morning's on his way,
And bids me close my Roundelay.




FAREWELL LINES

TO

_BRISTOL HOT WELLS_.


Bristol! in vain thy rocks attempt the sky,
The wild woods waving on their giddy brow;
