And proudly bear the beauteous maid

To Saltrum's venerable shade,—

Or if she liked not woods at Saltrum,

Why, nothing easier than to alter 'em,—

Then had I tasted bliss sincere,

And happy been from year to year.

How changed this scene! for now, my Granville,

Another match is on the anvil.

And I, a widow'd dove, complain,

And feel no refuge from my pain—
