[122] ELEGIES.
AN ELEGY UPON MY BEST FRIEND AN ELEGY UPON MY BEST FRIEND L. K. C.
Should we our Sorrows in this Method range, Oft as Misfortune doth their Subjects change, And to the sev'ral Losses which befall, Pay diff 'rent Rites at ev'ry Funeral ; Like narrow Springs drain'd by dispersed Streams, 5 We must want Tears to wail such various Themes, And prove defective in Deaths mournfull Laws, Not having Words proportion'd to each Cause.
In your Dear loss my much afflicted Sense, Discerns this... Truth by sad experience, 10 Who never Look'd my Verses should survive.
As wet Records, That you are not Alive ; And less desir'd to make that Promise due.
Which pass'd from Me in jest, when urg'd by You.
How close and slily doth our Frailty work! 15 How undiscover'd in the Body lurk!
That Those who this Day did salute you well.
Before the Next were frighted by your Knell.
O wherefore since we must in Order rise.
Should we not Fall in equal Obsequies? 20 But bear th'Assaults of an uneven Fate, Like Feavers which their Hour anticipate; Had this Rule constant been, my long wish'd End Might render you a Mourner for your Friend: [123] ELEGIES As He for you, whose most deplor'd surprise 25 Imprints your Death on all my Faculties ; That hardly my dark Phant'sle or Discourse, This final Duty from the Pen inforce : Such Influence hath your Eclipsed Light, It doth my Reason like my Self benight.
