Miscllamous Articles. fKOM THE HAMPSHIRE GAZETTE. Lines suggested on reading Cowper's Task. "When the b >vm with anguish is fraught, \V lien (he heartbeats withsnTrow and care* "When pleasures we anxiously sought Have deceitfully v&uished in air. "When friends are all false or severe, When we look with regret on the past : When we wish, vainly wish, for a tear To relieve the sad sorrows we taste ; J Tis sweet thro’ the woodland to stray, 'With the shade of a poet at rest; To attend to the echoing lay, ‘Of a bard whose sweet music has ceas'd ! *Tis then by a murmuring rill, Days, months that have rapidly past, They bless us in the retrospect still, And their pleasure’s in memory last. Here’s Cowper, I call thee my friend, And in vision of Fancy am bless’d ; And pleas’d, to thy counsels attend, ’Till my mind of thy calm is possess’d. He re joy and sobriety blend, life’s storms all their terrors have lost; How welcome a calm to the miod, Which late on the tempest was toss’d—» But soon Nature’s beauties that charm, By the chill frost of autum shall die $ H'*r foliage shall float on the stream, Wiule the wind thro’ the forest shall sigh. No longer her beauties shall please But winter, dull winter has joys, For him who with life is at ease, And his time in improvement employ*. Who looks where true happiness lies, To his home, where hi* pleasure's increase j Has a foretaste of bliss in the «kies , Where waits him a summer of peace l JUST RECEIVED^ At the Augusta Book-Stare % For Sale , AN ADDITIONAL SUPPLY OF, SCHOOL BOOKS, AND A FEW OTHER PUBLICATIONS, Among Which Are , w. . .
