With frequent curves thy slopes between,

As loth to quit the enticing scene;

Or turning with young fawns to play,

Wily and volatile as they;

Alluring, with her tinkling sweet,

From bank to bank their timid feet;

Lov’d Valley! now no charm invites

My steps to rove these injur’d heights;

Thy wavy knolls the fence arrests;

The rude spade wounds thy swelling breasts;
