Was musical, though jarred by early griefs;
Elastic heavenward, although pressed with care;
And when its fond solicitudes for all

It loved, were lull'd awhile, it rose full fain,

To high and holy musings; following up
The flight of stronger souls, as if nought lack'd
But a new wing, to bear it to the skies:-
Now the new wing is given."

My dear Sir,
