Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EBEB EDED AFAFCESARIO thy Lyre's dulcet measure | A |
So sweetly so tenderly flows | B |
That could my sad soul taste of pleasure | A |
Thy music would soften its woes | B |
- | |
But ah gentle soother where anguish | C |
Takes root in the grief stricken heart | D |
'Tis the triumph of sorrow to languish | C |
'Tis rapture to cherish the smart | D |
- | |
The mind where pale Mis'ry sits brooding | E |
Repels the soft touch of repose | B |
Shrinks back when blest Reason intruding | E |
The balm of mild comfort bestows | B |
- | |
There is luxury oft in declining | E |
What pity's kind motives impart | D |
And to bear hapless fate unrepining | E |
Is the proudest delight of the heart | D |
- | |
Still still shall thy Lyre's gentle measure | A |
In strains of pure melody flow | F |
While each heart beats with exquisite pleasure | A |
SAVE MINE the doom'd VICTIM OF WOE | F |
