To a gentleman on his leaving Pakepsy In summer the aerial musicians around With harmony filled the grove, Delight sweld the bosoms where TASTE       could be found Or a throne for the emperor LOVE. But when the bright day-star from far distant skies Less potent directeth his ray -- And the wide spreading vapours in columns arise To usurp the poor remnant of day; When Summer's disrob'd of its mantle of green And autumn all gloomy comes on Air's sweet tuneful tenants in clusters convene To follow their monarch the SUN. They go! happy bands! -- but sorrow remains; And silence broods over the plain: Forlorn are the nymphs & dejected the swains, And Sadness commences his reign. Thus Willy you came & with you came Joy Hilarity danc'd at the news! And Venus's arch little hoodwinked boy Was by the sly goddess turn'd loose. You join'd in our circles and mixt in our play; You heighten'd the glee & the fun: Banish'd gloomy brow'd sorrow all scowling away And rivetted Mirth in her room. But now, (as in Autumn the sky-lark retires) From our rural amusements you flee, To where the proud dome & gilt turret aspires; And pleasure her banner lifts high: Where theaters, music and dancing combine With the hum & the news of the day; To drive far off care & annihilate time And chase sower sadness away. But go where thou wilt, may the sunshine of peace Gleam over thy head ever bright! Each Joy be enhanced -- more refin'd ev'ry bliss And multiplied ev'ry delight. Still thick in thy path may the wild roses spring Sweets of Eden around thee exhale! While the white doves of Venus on high clap the wing And Halcyons skim ov'r the vale.
