Advice to a LADY,

Original poems on several subjects | ||
Advice to a LADY,
On an Offer of Marriage.
Take my advice, without delay,
It will prevent a world of sorrow;
What wisely can be done to-day,
Defer not vainly till to-morrow.
It will prevent a world of sorrow;
What wisely can be done to-day,
Defer not vainly till to-morrow.
Thus, when the ivy would invest
Its kindred tree, if aught divides,
That branch no more for ever prest,
Hence quickly disengag'd it slides.
