How fweet with a dear friend to rove, Where linnets a grove, And blackbirds fwtetly Qng The mellow culLfinch, and the thrufli, The concert join from bufh, To welcome in the Spring. Or on (ome verdant bank reclin'd, Where falling objects foothe the mind, Or lull to foil repofe Our thoughts on rural fubjefts bent, Efljoy a calm, a fweet content, That grandeur feldom knows.
