Earth's days are numbered nor remote her doom ; As mortal, though less transient, than her sons ; Yet they dote on her, as the world and they Were both eternal, solid ; thou, a dream. They dote ! on what ? Immortal views apart, A region of outsides ! a land of shadows ! A fruitful field of flow'ry promises ! A wilderness of joys ! perplexed with doubts, And sharp with thorns ! a troubled ocean, spread With bold adventurers, their all on board ! No second hope, if here their fortune frowns ; Fro...wn soon it must. Of various rates they sail, Of ensigns various ; all alike in this, All restless, anxious ; tossed with hopes, and fears, In calmest skies ; obnoxious all to storm ; And stormy the most gen'ral blast of life : All bound for happiness ; yet few provide The chart of knowledge, pointing where it lies ; Or virtue's helm, to shape the course designed : All, more or less, capricious fate lament, Now lifted by the tide, and now resorb'd, And farther from their wishes than before : All, more or less, against each other dash.
