i heart, I ga v « my heart a - way.
lipiipiiliiilpiil
I watch'd the dawn of ev'ry grace,
And gaz'd upon that angel face,
While yet 'twas fafe to gaze ;
And fondly blefs'd each rifing charm,
Nor thought fuch innocence could harm,
The peace of future days —
But now defpotic o'er the plains,
TIk awful noon of beauty reigns,
And kneeling crouds adore :
Thefe charms arife too fiercely bright,
Danger and death attend the fight,
And I muft hope no more.
Mrs Barbaule.
