Enervate, long she stood--a sculptured dread, Till waking sense dissolved amazement's chain;Then home, with timid haste, distracted fled, And sunk in dreadful agony of pain.
Not the deep sigh, which madden'd Sappho gave, When from Leucate's craggy height she sprung, Could equal that which gave her to the grave, The last sad sound that echo'd from her tongue.
WRITTEN ON THE DEATH OF GENERAL WASHINGTON.
Lamented Chief! at thy distinguish'd deeds The world shall gaze with wonder and applause, Whil...e, on fair History's page, the patriot reads Thy matchless virtue in thy Country's cause.
Yes, it was thine, amid destructive war, To shield it nobly from oppression's chain;By justice arm'd, to brave each threat'ning jar, Assert its freedom, and its rights maintain.
Much honour'd Statesman, Husband, Father, Friend, A generous nation's grateful tears are thine;E'en unborn ages shall thy worth commend, And never-fading laurels deck thy shrine.
Illustrious Warrior! on the immortal base, By Freedom rear'd, thy envied name shall stand;And Fame, by Truth inspired, shall fondly trace Thee, Pride and Guardian of thy Native Land!
