FUGITIVE PORTRY

Mild Zephyrus the Graces leads,
To revel o'er the fragrant meads;
The mountains shout, the forefts ring
While Flora decks the purple Spring.

VOL. IV.

Though redolent of ev'ry flow'r
That once perfum'd Hymettus' side,
No hoarded sweets of Grecian store
Did e'er the Attic bee provide,
That could a purer flavor yield,

Than yields the comb this hive contains,
Though cull'd from no Hesperian field,
But the wild growth of Britain's plains.
