XXIII.

"'Tis as a vine of Galilee should say,

Culturer, I reck not thy support, I sigh

For a young palm tree, of Euphrates; nay--

Or let me him entwine or in my blossom die.

"Thy heart is set on joys it may not prove,

And, panting ingrate, scorns the blessings given?--

Hoping from dust formed man, a seraph's love

And days on earth like to the days of heaven.
