LAURA's ANSWER.
By Miss G---.
Soon be thy lyre to winds consign'd,
Or hurl'd beneath the raging deep,
For while such strains seduce my mind,
How shall my heart its purpose keep?
Or hurl'd beneath the raging deep,
For while such strains seduce my mind,
How shall my heart its purpose keep?
Thy artful lays, which artless seem,
With too much fondness I approve;
Ah! write no more on such a theme,
Or Laura's friendship—ends in love.
With too much fondness I approve;
Ah! write no more on such a theme,
Or Laura's friendship—ends in love.
