ON A LADY WEEPING, by                 Poet Analysis     Poet's Biography
First Line: Lovely gems of radiance meek
Last Line: And flutters in the fost'ring dew.


Lovely gems of radiance meek
Trembling down my Laura's cheek,
As the streamlets silent glide
Thro' the Mead's enamell'd pride,
Pledges sweet of pious woe,
Tears which Friendship taught to flow,
Sparkling in yon humid light
Love embathes his pinions bright:
There amid the glitt'ring shower
Smiling sits th' insidious Power;
As some winged Warbler oft
When Spring-clouds shed their treasures soft
Joyous tricks his plumes anew,
And flutters in the fost'ring dew.
