From a late Bntijhpublication, entitled, " Lines to tlie Memory of
the Rev. Mr. John Wesl ey, A.M."
41 "O OUND We/lcy*s Urn no sanguine laurels bloom,
Xv No Widow's Curses murmur on his tomb;
No blood-ftain'd fpe&res haunt his parting hour,
Grin sound his bed, and o'er his pillow lour;
No butcher'd Orphan glares indignant by,
To scare the {lumbers from his closing eye ;
But Peace comes fmilingon her Seraph wing,
And steals the barb ftom Death's relenting sting :
To his last hours the good Man's meed is given,
Approving Conscience and approving Heaven !"
The char after of Mr. Wejley is thus delineated:
lt Glowing with Christian zeal and Patriot fire,
With all the love that Count ry can inspire,
With all the warmth that Genius can impart,
He pours the living precept on the heart:
Spreads on the darkling mind th* illuming lay,
And all the glories of Eternal Day.
Consoles the feeble, and confirms the strong,
And leads the timid fearlefsly along :
Grief, Sickness, Sorrow, Want, his bounties share,
And needy Worth becomes his guardian care.
Around his board no pamper'd lacquies wait,
In all the pomp of Oriental state.
He rears no Palaces, no wide spread plain
Calls him sole Lord of all its proud domain.
He courts no grandeur, and he hoards no wealth,
And toil and temperance procure him health.
Not even Avarice, the Vice of Age,
Clouds the mild lustre of his life's last stage.
Rich in the treasures of a feeling mind,
He knows no good but that of all Mankind ;
No fdfifh aim inspires his great design,
But Holy Love and Charity divine :
While to the wrangling sons of noisy ftrife,
He gives th'example of a blameless Life."

am not the Dr. John Fothergill as lives in Lon
