i J This o oden has a soft clear eye, 'J'hat steals the snul I know nnt why; Her hmg black tresses graceful flow Adowu a neck as white as snow; Her farm is cast in beauty's mould

Who can, unruov'd, such charms heboid? Yet, yet, whene'er I think of wedding, Mv passion in an instant flies; Domestic wrangling soiely dreading, I dare not thus secure the prize. Nnt softest eye of azure blue Jiot bosom ot a snow-white hue Hot silken locks not form divine, Can e'er induce me to resign Sweet Liberty. This sprightly maiden, young and gay. Looks brighter than the op'ning day; Enchanting smiles illume her face, ach worci is it each n otion grace; And when she sounds her charming voice, JVIy kindling soul does then rejoice; Yet, do not think I would disparage Wedlock's pure and holy rite ; Yet, yet, whene'er I think of marriage, My love, at once, is put to flight; Not music's captivating power Not wit entwining every hour Not heavenly smiles not sparkling eyes, Can e'er induce me to sacrifice Sweet Liberty. "Young Cupid who was standing nigh, Soon xanish'd my weak vanity; From rut his quiver drew a dart, And quickly shot me to the heart. Asto..ishl by the sudden wound, 2 started, and I gaz'd around; My restless eye, unquiet moving. Was fix'd at last on her sweet charms; Then first I knew the sweets of loving Then first I knew ps fond alarms. 1 look'd I trembled looked again 2 felt x dear delicious pain; And cvied, as soft ideas grew, Be, dearest, mine, and then adieu To Liberty.
