The miscellaneous works (1739) | ||
SOLILOQUY X.
If e'er again I find my soul's delight,With love's soft fetters I'll restrain his flight;
183
The sparks of life shall quit my trembling heart:
That life, which soon would prove a tiresome load,
Without the charming hopes to find my God.
O thou that dost my panting breast inspire
With all the ardor of celestial fire,
Thee I must find, or in the search expire!
In vain the tempting world its glory shows,
All it can give would yield me no repose;
Renounc'd at once let all its proffers be,
My bliss shall be completely full in thee:
Here is my rest, my vain pursuits are o'er;
Here let me fix, and never wander more.
