Woodworth, Samuel (1784-1842)

[dedication]

MELODIES.

[Whate'er the charms of mead or grove]

[Ye fair, who seek a splendid lot]

[No more pursue the city's fleeting toys]

[And now relieved from day's turmoil]

[The fortune I crave, and I covet no more]

Smile of Affection.

[While flocks and herds in safety feed]

[While slaves of ambition sell comfort for fame]

[In life's fair morn, when sunshine warm'd the scene]

[Now sober Pomona has won]

Variety.

Beside a Streamlet.

[How oft, reclined beside a babbling stream]

[The fortune I crave, and I covet no more]

[_]

Air—Cottage on the moor.

The fortune I crave, and I covet no more,
Is health, rural pleasures, apparel, and food,
The friend that I love, and the girl I adore,
In a neat little cottage that stands near a wood
