THE FOURTH POEM.
[On my Account, to Grief a ceaseless Prey]
On my Account, to Grief a ceaseless Prey,Dost thou a sympathetic Anguish prove?
I would not wish to live another Day,
If my Recovery did not charm my Love:
For what were Life, and Health, and Bloom to me,
Were they displeasing, beauteous Youth! to thee.
