  1. (continued from previous page)
    Lady I will not ask for aught,
    Save what thy kindness may bestow;
    A little favour, one of thought
    When billows surging 'tween us row -
    As social joys with thee delay,
    And blessings twine thee o'er and o'er,
    Let memory back a moment stray
    To youth and dream-land bright once more.
