[The following, by mere accident, has fallen into my hands; the author of which I have not the honour of being acquainted with.—As I cannot conceive it will in any degree offend him by its insertion in your Repository, and as its merits intitles it to your attention, I beg you will give it a place.

STANZAS,

ADDRESSED TO A YOUNG LADY.

The hour full fraught with woes is now arriv’d,

In which I bid thy lovely form farewell;

Sever’d from thee can I the task survive,
