A FAREWELL PROSPECT. 123 



And though perhaps some less luxuriant spot, 

 May, like to thousands, be my portion'd lot, 

 Yet let me not repine, sinco 'tis not found 

 True peace and comforts to one place are bound, 

 For I hare seen them blest, with all endear'd 

 Where nothing pleasing to the eye appear'd. 

 May such be mine I be where I may, to find 

 Through resignation a contented mind ; 

 \eteven then I'll live in hope to ee . 

 These times return, renew'd again to me, 

 When I may join my select few once more, 

 In sweet communion, as I've done before ; 

 And o'er and o'er re-trace these steps again;- 

 The vales re-visit, and re-view the plain.
