215 The following autobiographical lines by Mr. Bent- ley are from the original copy in my own possession. When written it will be seen that he was blind : — LINES Written on my birthday, the 9th of May, 1799, when I had completed my 77th year of age. Oh ! what avails it that in early prime, In innocence and ease I passed my hours ? My lesson o'er, all sportive was my time ; My life seem'd then bespread with blooming flowers. Oh ! what avails it when in perfect health, Blessed with kind relativ...es and friends in store ? A few paternal acres was my wealth ; I was content — what could I wish for more ? Oh ! what avails it that my mind was fraught With moral precepts from the sacred page ; From many authors ancient lore was taught, And was well read in many a Grrecian sage ? Oh ! what avails it, that with taste and skill, From ivory keys fuU harmony I drew ; And with melodious strains my flute could flll, And from the viol strings form concords new ? Oh ! what avails it that I joined the dance.
