SPASIA rolls her sparkling eyes,

And every bofom feels her power;

The Indians thus view Phœbus rife,

And gaze in rapture, and adore.

Quick to the foul the piercing fplendors dart,
Fire every vein, and melt the coldest heart.

ASPASIA fpeaks; the liftening crowd
Drink in the found with greedy ears;
Mute are the giddy and the loud,

And felf-admiring folly hears.

Her wit fecures the conquefts of her face;
Points every charm, and brightens every grace,

ASPASIA moves; her well-turn'd limbs
Glide ftately with harmonious cafe;
Now thro' the mazy dance the fiims,
Like a tall bark o'er fummer feas;

'Twas

of love,

"Twas thus ENEAS knew the queen Majestic moving thro', the golden grove.

But ah! how cruel is my lot,

To doat on one so heavenly fair; For in my humble state forgot,

Each charm but adds to my defpair. The tuneful fwan thus faintly warbling lies, Looks on his mate, and while he fings, he dies.

THE END.

To SLEEP.

COME gentle God of foft repose,

Come footh this tortur'd breast;

Shed kind oblivion o'er my woes,
And lull my cares to reft.

Come gentle God, without thy aid
I fink in dark defpair;
O wrap me in thy filent fhade,
For peace is only there.

Let hope in fome propitious dream
Her bright illufions spread;
Once more let rays of comfort beam
Around my drooping head.

O quickly fend thy kind relief,
Thefe heart-felt pangs remove;
Let me forget myself, my grief,
every care-but love.
