HE ENUMERATES AND EULOGISES THE GRACES OF LAURAB

-
Where is the brow whose gentlest beckonings ledC
My raptured heart at will now here now thereD
Where the twin stars lights of this lower sphereE
Which o'er my darkling path their radiance shedC
Where is true worth and wit and wisdom fledC
The courteous phrase the melting accent whereD
Where group'd in one rich form the beauties rareD
Which long their magic influence o'er me shedC
Where is the shade within whose sweet recessF
My wearied spirit still forgot its sighsG
And all my thoughts their constant record foundH
Where where is she my life's sole arbitressG
Ah wretched world and wretched ye mine eyesG
Of her pure light bereft which aye with tears are drown'dH

Where is that face whose slightest air could moveJ
My trembling heart and strike the springs of loveK
That heaven where two fair stars with genial rayL
Shed their kind influence on life's dim wayL
Where are that science sense and worth confess'dM
That speech by virtue by the graces dress'dM
Where are those beauties where those charms combinedN
That caused this long captivity of mindN
Where the dear shade of all that once was fairD
The source the solace of each amorous careD
My heart's sole sovereign Nature's only boastO
Lost to the world to me for ever lostP
