Expectancy.
EXPECTANCY .
JL WHEN waves , when tempests tost , A fugitive from shore to shore ; Hope ' s forward prospect never lost ; 'Twas this against the current bore : Expecting soon at home to find My . friends were true , my Kitty kind .
Around when Devastation spread Her crimson pinions , stain'd with gore ; When Britain ' s sons in battle bled , And groans were drown'd in cannons' roar , Upheld by Hope , I thought to find My friends were true , my Kitty kind . Bfamine and bfrost assail'd
y y , On icy Greenland ' s trackless coast , Whene ' er my comrades' spirits fail'd , I gave them this reviving toast : A safe return ! and may we find Our friends are true , our lasses kind 1 Now crown'd with conquest , blest with peace , Farewell to foreiclime
ev ' ry gn ; Let mirth commence , destruction cease-Let Love and Friendshi p share the time 1 For safely moor'd at home , I find My friends are true , my Kitty kind . W . D . " G .
The Moss Rose Bud.
THE MOSS ROSE BUD .
JL ^ ITTLE Bud of op ' ning red , Where , the blooming Graces dwell ; Nodding o ' er thy dewy bed , In thy verdant mossy cell . With Lover's hand should fond
some youth . To Delia ' s breast thy beauties bear ; Go , —and learn this sacred truth , That greater beauties flourish there .
