[“As o'er the lake, in evening's glow]

[Oh, were it not for this sad voice]

[Oracles, truer far than oak]

[Th' imbrowning of the fruit, that tells]

[While, far as sight could reach, beneath as clear]

[“Fair Rhodope]

[“Light as a lime-bush, that receives]

[You, who would try]

[“Drink of this cup—Osiris]

[“Drink of this cup—when Isis led]

[“Oh! Abyssinian tree]

[------ on one of those sweet nights]

[------ the glorious stream]

MORAL.

The moral hence my Muse infers
Is, that such Lords are simple elves,
In trusting to Extinguishers,
That are combustible themselves.
