A TRIO.
RONALD.Adieu to love, 'tis glory calls,
I go to seek the post of danger,
'Mid clashing blades and whizzing balls,
My heart to peaceful thoughts a stranger.
LOUISA.
May heaven protect thee in the fight,
I breathe the wish with pious fervor,
ERNEST AND LOUISA.
And may its choicest blessings light
On thee, our generous, kind preserver.
LOUISA.
Whate'er thy future fate may be,
ERNEST AND LOUISA.
Whatever ills beset thee,
ALL.
Oh, deign sometimes to think of me,
Who never can forget thee.
