Looks to the road, and fondly thinks she hears

The carriage-wheels, and struggles with her tears.

All yet is new, the misses great and small,

Madam herself, and teachers, odious all;

From laughter, pity, nay command, she turns,

But melts in softness, or with anger burns;

Nauseates her food, and wonders who can sleep

On such mean beds, where she can only weep.

She scorns condolence—but to all she hates
