His purpose could no longer be delayed His heart and hand were offer'd to the maid ; While lawyers should in haste a deed prepare, That she and her's alone his wealth might heir. FRANK DICKSON. 99 For Folly thus glass-beads and baubles shine Bright as the diamond from the Eastern mine. With sparkling eye, and softly-lisping tongue, She bade him think how old, and she how young. " I thank you, Sir but this can never be : " Farewell !" she said, " and think no more of me !'* I need not say how of...t he went and came, While she at every visit fann'd his flame ; At last, with due delay, to save her pride, With well-feign'd modesty the fair complied.
