Henry was worth dong, "Me juvat hesternis positum languere corollis."-PROPERTIUS. Madras: J. HIGGINBOTHAM. MOUNT ROAD. To Francis Edmund Green. "Sweet memory! wafted by thy gentle gale, A blooming Eden in his life renews." ROGERS. A VOLUNTARY exile from the shore Buoyant with hope, and schemes how vainly plann'd, for, like the Nautilus, I bore I came; My home above the waves I ventured o'er. Two little years are gone. Death's cruel hand Blame not the verse, my friend, if banishment Hath made me rather turn unto the past, Than to what is or shall be-temperate sadness My thoughts back on my hours of former gladness. |
