TO MISS C---, ON HER BIRTH-DAY.
How many between east and west,
Disgrace their parent earth,
Whose days constrain us to detest
The day that gave them birth;
Disgrace their parent earth,
Whose days constrain us to detest
The day that gave them birth;
Not so when Stella's natal morn
Revolving months restore,
We can rejoice that she was born,
And wish her born once more!
Revolving months restore,
We can rejoice that she was born,
And wish her born once more!
