Thou charm'st in fancy's idle dream In reason's underline philosophic /underline page

That very law which moulds a tear And bids it trickle from its source, That law preserves the Earth a sphere And guides underline the planets in their /underline Course.

By Mr. Thomas Day

When faithless Senates venally betray When each degenerate noble is a Slave When Britain falls an unresisting prey; What part befits underline the /underline generous & the brave?

If vain the task to rouse my Country's ire And imp once more the Storks dejected wing To Solitude indignant I retire And leave the underline World /underline to parasites & Kings.

Not like the deer whom wearied in the Chase Each leaf astonishes, each breeze appals, But like the Lion when he turns the chase Back on his hunters, & the valiant falls.
