Fogo’s salt tears, since thou art gone, old blade,

Shall oft bedew the spot where thou art laid;

And to thy memory in thy place of rest,

He oft will take a drop of Seager’s best.

A long farewell, from care and sorrow free,

Neglect and kindness are alike to thee;

Yet a poor brother bard, to friendship true,

Weeps o’er thy grave, and sighs a last adieu.”
