Once more o'er distant regions do we tread. And the cold grave yields up its cherished dead ; Digitized by VjOOQIC 311 While present sorrows banisbM far away, §5 Unclouded azure gilds the placid day. Or in the future's cloud-encircled face. Fair scenes of bliss to come we fondly trace. And draw minutely ev'ry little wile. Which shall the feathery hours of time beguile^ 100 So when forlorn, and lonesome at her gate. The RoyaF Mary solitary sale. And view'd the moon-beam trembling on the wave. An...d heard the hollow surge her prison lave. Towards France's distant coast she bent her sight, 105 )For there her soul had wii^'d its longing flight; There did she form full many a scheme of joy. Visions of bliss unclouded with alFoy, Which bright thro' hope's deceitful optics he^m'A And all became the surety' wiiich it seem*d: 110 She wept, yet felt, while all within was calnf. In ev'ry tear a ^uelaqcholycharnpi. To yonder hill, whose sides, deforna'd and steep. Just yield a scanty sustenance to the sheep.
