Lines Written Upon A Watch-string, Made And Presented To The Author By Miss ---- .
John Carr (Sir)
Say, lovely Charlotte! will you let me prove
What diff'rent thoughts thy taste and beauty move?
This woven chain, which graceful skill displays,
Leads me to think of time, and heave a sigh;
But when on thee and on thy charms I gaze,
Time unremember'd moves, or seems to die.
(C) John Carr (sir)
