On Natural Beauty Written for the Scnki.owhk, Let others chant thy charms, () queenly rose; Or sins the fairness of the lily white; Admiring guests behold neath lucent light.

The rare exotic that no winter knows; Tis mine to wander where the hawthorn blows, Dance to the music of the woodland sprite; on wildling beauty sate an eager sight, And quaff the breezes where the woodbine grows. For peeress proud, or peasant maid, alike Such fragrance is dispensed, and vagrants sip The nectar'd drops, or seek the mossy dyke. A bounteous Hand has spread this board, the lip. That longs, may taste the feast, while zephyrs strike Their tuneful tones where shaded waters dip. Sarah IIakckavks.
