Then Hymen's sacred bonds shall chain
My heart to her fair bosom ;
There, while my being does remain,
My love more fresh shall blossom.

HAD I A CAVE.
Had I a cave on some wild distant short
Where the wind howl to the wavers Hashing roar;

There would I weep ray woes, There seek my
lost re-pose, Till grief my eyes should close,
Ne'er to wake more.
