ABSENT POET TO HIS MISTRESS.

Stay! my charmer, can you leave me?

Cruel, cruel to deceive me;

Well you know how much you grieve me.
Cruel charmer, can you go?

Cruel charmer, can you go?-BURNS.

DOOM'D thus to worship thee in vain,
I useless mourn my rigid lot;
Yet happier in this secret pain
Than if thy beauty was forgot.

The sigh to memory gives a force,

That brings before me all thy charms; Of grief and joy alike the source, Of rapture, or of fond alarms.

The smile, for often will the smile
Chase the sad shades of thought away,
That darken o'er the brows awhile,
As clouds o'er-cast an April day-
