RAVING WINDS AROUND HER BLOWING.
Raving winds around her blowing,
Yellow leaves the woodlands ftrowing.
By a river hoarfely roaring,
Ifabella ftray’d, deploring:
Farewell, hours, that late did meafure
Sunfhine days of joy and pleafure;
Hail, thou gloomy night of forrow,
Cheerlefs night that knows no morrow.
O’er the pafl; too fondly wand’ring,
On the hopelefs future pond’ring,
Chilly grief my life-blood freezes,
Fell defpair my fancy feizes;
Life, thou foul of every bleffing.
Load to mifery moll: diftreffing,
Gladly how would I relign thee,
And to dark oblivion join thee!
