Mr. Finno,
The subsequent lines were written by a
youth, who unfortunately pofTefled an
amorous affection for a young lady, with
whom he had 110 personal acquaintance.
Should you find a vacancy, oblige me
by inserting it in your paper. It is
not for the elegance of the composition,
but for its Angularity thatlwifh it pub
lifted, f;*r the amuf>.:nent of your rea
ders.

pleai
Yft vainly fousr
g'.:t, I frankly do confefs,
ico lome such odd p'tiren-
But leafl pp-chai
.. you,
O deign to read ail ardent youth'j ad-
'/.y faz
di'cfo
And, dearth girl, believe each line I
vi-'te you,
Flows from my heart, like the moll
limpid ilreani;
For though I court you in a manner quite
new,
Think not my fuffering» a fancied
(uvan j!
Long I hare lov'd unknown, and long
have lar.^uifh'd,
. Long have I wifh'd, and hop'd, and
figh'd in vain,
Then let not oue with such afflictions an-
guifh'd,
Be ridicul'd for telling you his pain !
I blulh to own how I have past my hours,
By balhfulnefs in fccret pirj'd alone,
But now so urg'd by love's most potent
powers,
I make cach foible of my passion known.
Methinks 'twas firft, some several years a'
go. I
Beheld you walking in the ftreet—O
pain !
saw, I lov'd, ah, faireft girl! and know, I
Could ne'er learn more of you, than
your sweet name.
Oft have I flood, and gaz'd to fee you
walking;
When every Itep your lovely form dif
play'd;
Oft, loft in transport, have I heard you
talking,
When round your lips a thoufaud cu
pids play'd!
Your countenance the mirror of your
heart is,
In which I lee the virtues of your mind;
To those your beauty but your smallest
part is ;
But to prove faultlcfj, shew me you are
kind.
Smile then propitious—tell me that you
love me,
And all my life I'll live to give you joy;
Ot, can you, cruel! fay you soar above
me,
And call me uovice, simpleton or boy
Yet pity, pardon me, most lovely crea
ture,
If my uncouth address you disapprove,
For though my muse it lamt I Hill will
beat her,
'Till {he so hobble as to gain you love.
She, *h, poor Prut! whose tender limbs
are brittle,
Anxious, to please you leapt ot once
too high,
Which hurt her much and makes her limp
a little,
Yet cad on her a favorable eve.
Her fate is hard, yet harder far is mine
though
She may impnve but I mult e'er decay,
For if you hate me I am left to pine, O !
With nought to comfort te but dire
difrrjy.
R T I S E R.
[Whole No. 482.]
Then let no fopling in his tinfel'd deaths
elicit,
Whose head in inward air in outward
part
Resembles rr.oft an huge big empty crows
nest,
Make an impreflion on your t-ncicr
heart.
Nor the vain fcol whose only boall of
wealth is,
Whose finj'e and virtue sparkling r ,'J
make (hine;
Nor smiling lycophants, whose view you/
pelf is,
Though either kneeling, swear their
heart is thine.
But deign, O deign, in thy fair to
kindle
A flame for me whose obje£l ne'er wis
pelf,
And let me not to worse than notluug
dwindle
Who e'er mull love thee belter than
irtyfelf.
