TO MISS LOGAN, WITH BEATTIE'S POEMS, by                 Poet Analysis     Poet's Biography
First Line: Again the silent wheels of time
Last Line: An edwin still to you.
Subject(s): Gifts & Giving; Holidays; New Year


Again the silent wheels of time
Their annual round have driven,
And you, tho' scarce in maiden prime,
Are so much nearer Heaven.

No gifts have I from Indian coasts
The infant year to hail;
I send you more than India boasts,
In Edwin's simple tale.

Our sex with guile, and faithless love,
Is charg'd, perhaps too true;
But may, dear maid, each lover prove
An Edwin still to you.
