(Now first published. ) 



MAY health and peace give zest to lovCj 

 All else, loves' self bestow : 

 ^ 'Tis that which makes the bliss above, 



And sooths the avocs below. 



'Tis that which doth life's pilgrim charm, 



Pacing his M'ear'some road ; 

 He sees no ill — he fears no harm. 



For all his soul's abroad. 



Can the fond heart have room for woe. 



Where reigns fair Anna's form ! 

 Or can the eye in misery flow, 



Which she hath learnt to charm ? 



Or can the car attention pay 



To sorrow's doleful song ; 

 Whilst sentiment and reason play 



So sweet from Anna's tongue ; 



How happy then to call her thine. 



To think — to hear — to see — 

 How many charms she can combine, 



And all those charms for thee.

DEAR doctor, we your grateful boys, 

 Try one more theme e'er you depart; 

 'Tis ' Dulce Domuni,' and its joys, 

 Penn'd in the language of the heart.
