How vast the beauties they around display, Till dreary winterre-affumes his reign, And ftcrnly bids them vanifti and decay, And leave no trace* on the pensive plain. The gdded cowslip on the enamel’d mead, Difplay* his youthful glories to tiie view : Bat soon he droops his solitary head, And yields his virtue to the evening’s dew. Alas ! how transient is the dream of life, And every heart felt comfort we enjoy, And fraught with care, solicitude, and ftrife, Each Hour attempts our blessings to destroy. All human feenes arc fubjeft to decay, And time afTerts an all prevailing power; Expanding beauties to the morning’s ray, We bloom to wither, as the tender flower. I>ot lo the foul, its views fublrme, and pure, Where faith, and hope, and charity unite, shall rife and dwell eternally secure. In Heaven’s unfading manfionsof delight.* A Bath paper mentions, that thehorf s of the carriage of Mrs. Moon, in which was her beautiful daughter, ran away andoverfet the Charriot,at thefign of the Sun.
