In summer bowers?

What, weeping still? believe ’tis folly

To give full way to melancholy.

Youth should be as an April day,

Then smiles should chase those tears away;

For if in youth deep sorrows come,

Oh, where shall mem’ry find a home,

In after years,

To linger on, and raise a smile,

Amidst the world’s deceit and guile,
