ELEGY ON PARTJNG. I GO, my Love, and till we meet again, Let hope and constancy the time beguile; Again to meet, that profpeft (hall reftiain The tears that start thro' my dissembled smile. Farewell! but there is finirfi'd all my HoaO, That tender accent takers <>n my tongue; Ami I roust weep for that dear object 1011. On which I gat'd so fondly and Co long. O (lop, and turn, for ! have much to fay One word, one look, I cannot leave thee so! Ah me, (he take* a distant diff'rent way, And I, unheard, unanswered, vent my woe. From her foft voice no more I catch the found, No more her beauties grace happy fide ; I call, I search in vain, no more is found My sweet companion and my promis'd bri^e. Back to those happy scenes, remembrance fly, Thy lenient aid my sorrows shall remove ; For thou from those dear moments can'ft supply Full many a proof propitious to my love. Much tho' I lov'4, I found that love repaid, And feem'd of afll men happy o'er the reft; Consenting beauty heal'd the wound it made, And love enflav'd me but to make me blest. My lips the (lory of roy bosom told, Chcck'd by no no unkind reply; Then fav'ring glancfes bis my tongue be bold, And mutual paflion kindled in her eye. The bluvh foft spreading o'er her downcafl face, The sudden sigh half rising, half fuppreft, The cov diilrefs which heightens ev'ry grace, In silent eloquence her love confeft. Hov fwect to snatch her not unwilling hand, And alf delighted on her charms to gaze ; While roix'd with many a kiss we fondly plan'd The tender condutt of connubial days. Each social virtue decks her gentle mind, And fledfaft honor waves her banners there; So ctyaftc a Temple, Lovi was proud to find, And truth proclaims the parting vqw fiucere. While Tweet remembrance thus relieves my heart. Ah why fhoutd grief on the fair profpeft low'r ? we shall meet, and meet no mora to part. And Heav'n and Love Hi all bless th' expelled hour. Then fare thee well, and to thy constant mind Still he my mem'ry dear, tho' I am gone; Still be each tho't, each tender wilh, confin'd To rac, whose heart 11 full of thee alone. Tond Hope the while shall chcar my drooping foul, In Tweet impatience shall the time employ ; Shall chide tht lazy moments as they roll, And Tooth my grief with tlto'is ol future joy.
