A Paraphrase
A PARAPHRASE
ON THE Lcetalus sum in bis . PSALM CXXII .
ON wings of harmony up-borne Wide flew th' exulting sound ; Auspicious beam'd the festal morn , That call'd the nations round . To SALEM ' favour * d tow ' rs and plain ? \ The bands fraternal move :
Her temples catch the solemn strains , That swell to PEACE AND LOVE . O ' er SALEM ' S plains new structures rise ; Her busy sons spread wide , Heave mighty turrets to the skies , O'er-arcb the fluent tide . Sweet science beams upon their toil
, Descending Powers approve ; And sounding round the sculptur'd pile , The strains are PEACE AND LOVE . Now swells the choir in solemn tone , And hovering angels join ; Religion looks delighted down , When vot ' ries press the shrine .
To SALEM bliss—and ' midst her tow ' rs , May guards celestial move , To join the grateful hymn that pours Its strains to PEACE AND LOVE .
On A Beautiful Young Lady, Of Low Size, Who Died At The Age Of Fifteen.
ON A BEAUTIFUL YOUNG LADY , OF LOW SIZE , WHO DIED AT THE AGE OF FIFTEEN .
NATURE , in this small volume , was about To perfect what in women was left out ; But , fearing lest a piece so well begun Might want preservatives when she had done , Ere she could finish what she undertook , Threw dust upon it , and shut up the book .
