CURST, as the devil himftlf, is he,
Tir unhappy welch whose tird to thee;
"Who hears and fees the,, every hour. Talk fo loud, and look fo four. Tis this deprives my foul of reft, This raiTes horrors in my breaft ; For oft in fudden anguifh toft, My courage fails, "my voice is loft. My hair's erecl : unufual dread O'er all my vital frame is fpread ; My feared eyeballs fliun the fight ; Deaf are my ears with dire affright. ColdTweats my trembling members feel ; Terrific fears my blood congeal; Refolv'd, at lad, no more to Hay, I rife take breath and run away !
