Shall be the sacred spot, still blooming nigh,

The bower of love, where first his bosom burned,

And smiling passion saw its smile returned.

Go forth and prosper then, emprizing band:

May He, who in the hollow of his hand

The ocean holds, and rules the whirlwind’s sweep,

Assuage its wrath, and guide you on the deep!


FAREWELL TO LOVE.
