 | Oculus Britanniae |  |
Poor Coburne's fate these sad reflections drew,
O! most unhappy, hapless nymph, adieu.
Tormenting loss! too grievous for the mind!
If gentle Dutton were not left behind;
In her surviving charms we find relief,
On her soft bosom intermit our grief,
The painful hours in soft endearments waste,
And in our present joys forget the past.
O! most unhappy, hapless nymph, adieu.
Tormenting loss! too grievous for the mind!
If gentle Dutton were not left behind;
56
On her soft bosom intermit our grief,
The painful hours in soft endearments waste,
And in our present joys forget the past.
