When pure and unresisted thoughts conspire,
To be dissolv’d in love and warm desire--
The heart then melts with unaffected zeal,
The soul desires no other joys to feel.
Oh may this latter pair such raptures find
In Hymen’s bands as calm the wand’ring mind:
May pure affection choicest gifts bestow,
And crowns of laurels cause their hearts to glow.
On Saturday evening last, by the Right Rev. Bishop Provost, Mr. WALTER
TOWNSEND, of this city, to Miss JEMIMA WHITE, of Norwalk.
May bliss forever play around their heads,
Content be their’s, and peace unmix’d with care;
And all the joys that await virtuous deeds,
Center in my dear friends--this happy pair.
One that ne’er yet has known connubial bliss--
At verse a novice--now solicits Heav’n
To strew round you, in variegated dress,
All, all the blessings that to us are giv’n.

VERSES,
Addressed to Miss A---- B----.
Accept, dear girl, this artless lay,
Flowing from an heart sincere,
And banish sorrow far away,
Nor think Omnipotence severe.
Affliction is the lot of all,
With ev’ry sweet is mixed gall;
Each pleasing prospect that allures,
But a momentous bliss insures.
I’ve felt, alas! this fatal truth,
And been a prey from early youth;
Have drank of sorrow’s bitter cup,
But pleasing hope still bears me up.
With our lov’d friends we here must part,
Death, unrelenting, aims his dart;
We all must his stern call obey,
And sink into our native clay.
You mourn a tender parent’s fate.
Now summon’d to a future state;
Whose kind solicitude while here,
Prevented each corroding care.
Ah, mourn no more, my lovely friend,
Let grief no more your bosom rend;
Dry up your tears, suppress your sighs,
And seek a mansion in the skies.
The orphan’s parent be your guide,
On his sure word of truth confide;
He ever faithful is, and just,
To succour all that in him trust.
