No train of cheerful days, endearing nights,

No sweet domestic joys, and chaste delights;

Pleasures that blossom e'en from doubts and fears;

And bliss and rapture rising out of cares:

No little Guilford, with paternal grace,

Lull'd on her knee, or smiling in her face;

Who, when her dearest father shall return,

From pouring tears on her untimely urn,

Might comfort to his silver hairs impart,

And fill her place in his indulgent heart:
