Excerpt from Desultory Thoughts in London, Titus and Gisippus, With Other Poems
To whom, more suitably, can I present Effusions, London, penn'd in thy deep haunt, Than to a friend there, the sole friend fate lent, Who caus'd that, homeless, home's peculiar want I Should not feel - not SO - th'at it should daunt With sense of loneliness my pining spirit, That I no more should have the will to chaunt My simple lays? Yes, thou canst boast the merit, Though reft of Joy, that life did still some Hope inherit.
