'Nil ego contulerim jucundo sanus amico ' Horace	A
	-
	-
Dear Long in this sequester'd scene	B
While all around in slumber lie	C
The joyous days which ours have been	D
Come rolling fresh on Fancy's eye	C
Thus if amidst the gathering storm	E
While clouds the darken'd noon deform	E
Yon heaven assumes a varied glow	F
I hail the sky's celestial bow	G
Which spreads the sign of future peace	H
And bids the war of tempests cease	H
Ah though the present brings but pain	I
I think those days may come again	J
Or if in melancholy mood	K
Some lurking envious fear intrude	K
To check my bosom's fondest thought	L
And interrupt the golden dream	M
I crush the fiend with malice fraught	L
And still indulge my wonted theme	M
Although we ne'er again can trace	N
In Granta's vale the pedant's lore	O
Nor through the groves of Ida chace	N
Our raptured visions as before	O
Though Youth has flown on rosy pinion	P
And Manhood claims his stern dominion	P
Age will not every hope destroy	Q
But yields some hours of sober joy	Q
Yes I will hope that Time's broad wing	R
Will shed around some dews of spring	R
But if his scythe must sweep the flowers	S
Which bloom among the fairy bowers	S
Where smiling Youth delights to dwell	T
And hearts with early rapture swell	T
In frowning Age with cold control	U
Confines the current of the soul	U
Congeals the tear of Pity's eye	C
Or checks the sympathetic sigh	C
Or hears unmov'd Misfortune's groan	V
And bids me feel for self alone	V
Oh may my bosom never learn	W
To soothe its wonted heedless flow	F
Still may I rove untutor'd wild	X
But ne'er forget another's woe	F
Yes as you knew me in the days	Y
O'er which Remembrance yet delays	Y
And even in age at heart a child	X
	-
Though now on airy visions borne	Z
To you my soul is still the same	A2
Oft has it ben my fate to mourn	Z
And all my former joys are tame	A2
But hence ye hours of sabl hue	B2
Your frowns are gone my sorrows o'er	C2
By every bliss my childhood knew	B2
I'll think upon your shade no more	O
Thus when the whirlwind's rage is past	D2
And caves their sullen roar enclose	E2
We heed no more the wintery blast	D2
When lull'd by zephyr to repose	E2
	-
Full often has my infant Muse	F2
Attun'd to love her languid lyre	G2
But now without a theme to choose	F2
The strains in stolen sighs expire	G2
My youthful nymps alas are flown	V
E is a wife and C a mother	C2
And Carolina sighs alone	V
And Mary's given to another	C2
And Cora's eye which roll'd on me	H2
Can now no more my love recall	I2
In truth dear LONG 'twas time to flee	H2
For Cora's eye will shine on all	I2
And though the Sun with genial rays	Y
His beams aike to all displays	Y
And every lady's eye's a sun	P
These last should be confin'd to one	P
The souls' meridian don't become her	C2
Whose sun desplays a general summer	C2
Thus faint is every former flame	A2
And Passion's self is now a name	A2
As when the ebbing flames are low	F
The aid which once improv'd their light	J2
And bade them burn with fiercer glow	F
Now quenches all their sparks in night	J2
Thus has it been with Passion's fires	S
As many a boy and girl remembers	S
While all the force of love expires	S
Extinguish'd with the dying embers	S
	-
But now dear LONG 'tis midnight's noon	K2
And clouds obscure the watery moon	K2
Whose beauties I shall not rehearse	L2
Describ'd in every stripling's verse	L2
For why should I the path go o'er	C2
Which every bard has trod before	O
Yet ere yon silver lamp of night	J2
Has thrice perform'd her stated round	M2
Has thrice retraced her path of light	J2
And chased away the gloom profound	M2
I trust that we my gentle Friend	N2
Shall see her rolling orbit wend	N2
Above the dear loved peaceful seat	O2
Which once contain'd our youth's retreat	O2
And then with those our childhood knew	B2
We'll mingle in the festive crew	B2
While many a tale of former day	P2
Shall wing the laughing hours away	P2
And all the flow of souls shall pour	O
Tha sacred intellectual shower	C2
Nor cease till Luna's waning horn	Z
Scarce glimmers through the mist of Morn	Z
