Yon splendid mansion, and yon lovely font,

No more are cheer’d by Sol’s refulgent pow’rs.

This lovely dome, this academic shade,

This pleasing grove, O! I must bid adieu;

But still each image shall be bright pourtray’d,

Rush on the Muse in pleasing fancied view;

Yes, yes, tho’ to those scenes I bid farewel,

In ocular sight perchance to view no more;

Yet the mind’s eye shall ever pleasing dwell,

And paint each beauty with extatic lore.
