As where fruits fall, quick rising blossoms smile,

And the bless'd Indian of his care beguile,

In vain these various reasons jointly press,

To blacken death, and heighten her distress;

She, thro' th' encircling terrors darts her sight

To the bless'd regions of eternal light,

And fills her soul with peace: to weeping friends

Her father, and her lord, she recommends;

Unmov'd herself: her foes her air survey,

And rage to see their malice thrown away.
