Then Arnold, gathering in the careless rein,

Inclined his whip across the horses mane;

They bend their twin-like necks as they proceed,

And soon attain the regulated speed.

The converse now continued for awhile

Upon the subject of the gipsy’s tale;

When Jane, consistent with her lowly sphere,

Relieved her eye of an incredulous tear:

Her hope was where it had continually soar’d,

And forth in secret there her pray’rs were pour’d.
