May be round from Maine to 

 Missouri. 



WINNING GRACE. 



Smiled like a knot of Cowslips on the cliff.

SENTIMENT. 



The rose its blushes need not lend, 

 Nor yet the lily with them blend, 



To captivate my eyes: 

 Give me a cheek the heart obeys, 

 And, sweetly mutable, displays 



Its feelings as they rise ; 



Features, where pensive, more than gay, 

 Save when a rising smile doth play, 



The sober thoughts you see; 

 Eyes that all soft and tender seem, 

 And kind affections round them beam, 



But most of all on me ; 



A form, though not of finest mould, 

 Where yet a something you behold 



Unconsciously doth please; 

 Manners all graceful without art, 

 Tha* to each look and word impart 



A modesty and ease. 



Fritbie.
