TO M. H.
Most faithful guardian! I have found in theeA tried, true friend; and if I warmly greet
This year, it is not that it sets me free
From silver fetters that adorn the feet.
Then leave not empty thine accustomed seat
In my heart's mansion!—reign there wisely still.
And when thy days of watching are complete,
Retain thine old, sweet influence o'er my will,
And take these songs of mine, some vacant hour to fill.
