The Sickening Pang Of Hope Deferr'd.

Just At The Age 'twixt Boy And Youth, When Thought Is Speech, And Speech Is Truth.

Covetousness Bursts The Sack And Spills The Grain.

Stood For His Country's Glory Fast, And Nailed Her Colors To The Mast!

For Love Will Still Be Lord Of All.

Ridicule Often Checks What Is Absurd, And Fully As Often Smothers That Which Is Noble.
