It has not, I think, been published, though not having a copy of his works beside me, I cannot be certain.
The death would have been about 1806, and the youth was probably a Caithness boy. It is as follows — AN ELEGY UPON ALEXIS SINCLAIR.
What solemn sounds from yonder hoary spire Along the void in circling billows roll ?
Be hushed my fears ; tumultous thoughts retire ; Fate's awful heralds ! Ah ! they thrill the soul.
To youth and age they speak the warning strain ; Prepare, ye careless ! for ...the approaching doom I Turn from the toys of this sublunar scene, And mark the world that lies beyond the tomb !
Thus, Wisdom slighted by the young and gay, Knocks for admission at the human heart ; Alas ! strong passions guard th' obstructed way, 200 ANTIQUARIAN NOTES.
And frowningly bid the heav'nly guest depart.
O dreadful spoiler of the Works of God !
Why not on woe-worn age exhaust thy store, „ Which fourscore years had cours'd the toilsome flood, ^ Now longing sighs ! to gain the destin'd shore !
