The Works of the Late Aaron Hill | ||
Passing a Lady, in the Park, without seeing her.
So slide our comforts by, unmark'd, unknown,While our ill fate comes felt, and all our own!
Too cruel world! where things, we wou'd refuse,
We start upon—and, what we wish, we lose!
And, yet, Lotharia would be hid, in vain,
She cannot be conceal'd, whom thoughts retain.
Air, and Lotharia, every where, are found;
Held by our breath, and, to our being, bound!
Darkness, itself, wants pow'r to cover friends,
Whom the soul dwells with, and the sense attends.
