INTOXICATED WITH PLEASURE. 



Methinks I've cast full twenty years aside, 

 And am again a boy. Every breath 

 Of air that trembles through the window bears 

 flnusnal odour. 



PROCTOR. 



What's i' the air? 

 Seme subtle spirit runs thro' all my veins. 

 Hope seems to ride this morning on the wind, 

 And joy outshines the sun. 



PROCTOR. 



O sages! think on joy like this, 

 A.nd where 's your boast of apathy. 



MOORE. 



Each sound too here to languishment inclined, 

 Luli'd the weak bosom, and induced ease, 

 Aerial music in the warbling wind, 

 'xt distance rising oft, by small degrees, 

 ' earer and nearer came, till o'er the trees 

 It hung, and breathed such soul-dissolving airs, 

 As did, alas! with soft perdition please: 

 Entangled deep in its enchanting snares, 



list'ning heart forgot all duties and all cares. 



THOMSON.
