2 Court of Apollo. g
y/y,
The Blind Beggar.
Welcome thou man of Sorrows,
to rny door!
A willing balm thy wounded
bi-art shall find;
And, lo! thy guiding Dog my
cares iiiiplot <7
O baste, and sh Iter from t! e
unfeeling wind!
Alas! shall Misty seek my cot
with sighs,
And humbly sue for piteous alms
my ear;
Yet disappoint#*! go with lifted
eves,
And on mv threshold leave th’
upbraiding tear?
Thou Lowest for the pity I be
stow.
Bend not to me because I mourn 1
and Ist ress;
I am thy debtor—much to thee I
owe*
For learn-—the greatest blessing
is to bless.
Thv hoary locks, and wan and
pallid ch?. k,
And quiv’nng lip, to fancy
seem to s i\,
“ A more than common Beggar
we bespeak ;
“ A form that once has know'll
a happier day.”
Thv sightless orbs, arid venerable
Ix-ard,
And press’d, bv weight of
years, thv palsi’d bead,
Though silt tit speak with tongues
that must be heard,
Islav, must (otnuMnd if Virtue
be not dead.
Thy shatter’d yet tlune awe-in
spii ing form,
S"a*l give tile tillage lads the
*lun’d soul,
To aiil the victims of l-ifc's fre~
qutnt -stoim,
Ami smooth the surjjfs that a
rouud the m roll.
Teach them that Poverty may
Merit shroud;
Anil teach that Virtue may
from Mixet tj spring;
Flame Hive tht lightning from the
f i tuning i loud,
111 at eu nature’s 6 wie
us laven v.ing.
O let me own the heart which
pants to bl‘ss;
That nobly scorns to hide the
useless store.
But looks around for objects of
distress,
And triumphs in a sorrow for
the pool
When Ileav’n on man is pleas’d
its wealth to shovv’r,
Ah, what an envied bltss doth
heaven bestow!
T© raise pale Merit in her hope
less hour,
And lead Despondence from
the tomb of Wee!
T , * tU- lift/., /lira.? shall chirp
in vain,
And havering round me,vainly
court my cate;
While I possess the life preserv
ing gram,
Welcome, ye chitping tribe, to
peek your share.
IJtv can I hear your songs at
•Spring's return,
And hear while .Summer spieads
her golden store,-
Yet when the: gloom cl Winter
bidste mourn,
Heed rot the plaintive voice
that charm and before!
Since Fortune, to my cottage rot
unkind,
Strews with some flow'rs th;
road of Iti'c for v e,
Ah! can humanity desert on
mind?
Shad i not soften the ru Je fT.nl
forthet?
Then welcame, TeGGAH, from I
the rams and sr-e-.v. (
And warring elements, to l
warm’h and peace; j
Nay, thv companion, toe, s" l ®-
contfori know',
Who si.ii ing shakes away tae
icy iletcc.
Ar.d lo! he lays him by the fire, j
elate, ;
Now on his master turns his j
gladden’d eyes, , ,
Leaps Up to greet him on rheir
change of fate,
Licks his ioi’d hand, and then
beneath him lies.
A hut is mine, amidst a slieltring
gro\ e;
A lieimit there, exalt to hea
ven thv praise-;
Thee shah the village children
shew their love.
And hear from thee the tales of
oilier uays.
J here shall cur feather’4 friend
the bird of morn,
Charm tin with onions to o
ptntngdi ;
And there the icd-brtast, #n die
R.tftcss thoi n,
At eve Shull sooth thee With a
simple lay.
When Tate shall call thee from a
world at woa,
Thy fncno# arounS shall watch
thy clo„ii.£ eyes
With itars, L>i hold thy
spint go,
And wish to join its passaged 0
