HOw mild, and yet how firm, is Truth 4 
pourtray’d : : ms 
Placid, benign; yet awful io her air ; 
Assur’d, detérmin'd, yet serenely fair ! 
Scar’d at her irown, her glance, her tread, 
Palé-visag’d Vice droops his detested head! 
Awak’ning conscience, rage, remorse, despair, 
Guilt’s black and’ horrid train, his bosom 
tear, 
And, pierce his dark and secret soul with | 
dread. 
No timid fears Truth's stedfast purpose 
break, 
‘No mean arid scrdid views her dictates 
shake! 
With virtue fr’d, with rectitude imprest, 
She veils no treacherous motives in her 
breast 5 
Bares her pure bosom, and rejects disguises, 
_And courts th’ enquiry of discerning eyes.

SONG, 
‘ How peaceful smiles. this sylvan scene ! 
Cheerful and gay the Songsters rove 5 
“The fields’ are clad in vernal green, 
And vocal ev’ry breeze with love : 
How happy once the woods among, 
At early dawn, I lovy’d'tostray ; 
Here Laura first inspir’d my song, 
Here first she heard, and bless’d my lay. 
This transient dream of bliss is fled, 
These rural charms no more delight, 
Their fairest, fondest, nymph is dead, 
And ravish’d from my longing sight : 
A gloomy home my fancy seeks, 
For this I heave the frequent sigh; 
Life’s blush has left my Laura’s cheek, 
And I with Laura wish to lie,
