FICKLENESS. 
Thott art not what thou wert,— 
Farewell, and may God bless thee; 
My heart with strength is girt 
Once more to say, God bless thee! 
Thou hast forgot thy vow— 
I give thee back its token ; 
’Tis but a memory now 
Of pledges lightly broken. 
Farewell! we meet no more ; 
And though I now regret thee. 
My grief will soon be o’er;— 
I can, and will, forget thee. 
“ Inconstant as the passing -wind, 
As winter’s dreary frost unkind ; 
To fix her, ’twere a task as vain 
To count the April drops of rain.” 
Smollet.
