/? ■S^ The reveries of fond regret, The promise, never to forget, And all my heart and soul would send To many a dear-lovd, distant friend. How little, when we parted last,I thought those pleasant times were past,Forever past, when brilliant joyWas all my vacant hearts employ :When, fresh from mirth to mirth again, We thought the rapid hours too few;Our only use for knowledge then To gather bliss from all we knew,Delicious days of whim and soul! When, mingling lore and laugh together,We leand the book on Pleasures bowl. And turnd the leaf with Follys feather.Little I thought that all were fled.That, ere that summers bloom was shed,My eye should see the sail unfurldThat wafts me to the western world.
