Blazed through the night on lonely wilds afar,

And told the path,—a never-setting star:

So, heavenly Genius, in thy course divine,

Hope is thy star, her light is ever thine.”

Propitious Power! when rankling cares annoy

The sacred home of Hymenean joy;

When doomed to Poverty’s sequestered dell,

The wedded pair of love and virtue dwell,

Unpitied by the world, unknown to fame,

Their woes, their wishes, and their hearts the same—
