MR. FENNO,

ry, by a young gentlemen, to a circle of his female

11 less exceptionable to the critic's eye—but as ii
is, I think he need not blu/h to own it : By pub
'"nig it, you may probably surprize him, as yot.
will gratify your constant reader, LAVINIA.
NEW YEAR'S WISH.
""PO you, my young friends, while I write,
Kind wilhcs fponianeous arise;
And docs aught my rude paftions excite,
arr hulh'd by benevolent sighs.
A Muse, in the torm of a Dove,
Hovers round and every fear ;
She bids me each talent improve
To hail you a Happy New Year !
Her mandates I chearful obey,
As her (miles I would drive to procure ;
thr '"I" that my w,flies convey,
May her favors in future fecurc ;
On you, my young friends, may Ihe smile,
That your verle may with melody flow ;
And may joy all your sorrows beguile,
Nor an hour be reserved for woe.
When Wintir (hall sternly appear,
° Nature in gloom be array'd,
W hen the Manner (fiuddcrs thro fear,
Left hi, bark (hould by winds be betray'd,
Then in fafety, well (heltcr'd from snow.
May you, putting sorrow alide,
In dfim l flic tranquility know,
All the joys of a social fire-fide.
When Spr inc i n young beau:y (hall smile,
And charm following charm (hall unfold •
In rapiure, beholding the while,
May your portion be plealures untold ;
May eat h fougrter that chii p, on the fprav,
y eachflow'ret that blows in the field,
For you be more chearful ana gay,
for you its choice fragrances yield.
When Summer (hall sultry advance,
Ann flocks from their sports (hall retire;
May each youth, who dcclims the light dance,
Your charms, and your virtues admire.
May the grape-vine form Ar hnr, Q f eaf»,
hl,e Ihe eglantine (kins them around,
And then may the frelh balmy breeze
Waft perfumes from each neighboring ground.
When Autumn his treasures (hall bring
« nen each iiuit-trer (hall bend with its load :
May your hearts ever gratefully (ing
The hand that such bit-flings beftow'd.
lhall time roll away,
Nor lhall you once with it in'hafte !
And the Year that commences to-day
hi happier (hall be than the pall.
ThC VK hCn . W ' NfEßSand S?,UN «s (hall decay,
Al , h „ Cn and Autumns are <y cr.
And Phoeiius, the Prince of the day.
Shall wake the glad fcafons no more :
to you, each forgetting fur ninth,
May beauty immortal be gHcn
May you change the faint joy, of tl,', earth,
tor traniports uncloying i D Heaven.
