Excerpt from Miss. Seward's Monody on Major Andrè: And Elegy on Captain Cook; Also Mr. Pratt's Sympathy, a Poem
Bids haggard Winter, in her drear sojourn, Teartthesdi'm {foliagefroih her drizzling urn, With sickly yew unfragrant cypress twine, And hang the dusky wreath round honor's shrine. Bids steel-clad valour chace his dove-like bride, Enfeebling mercy, from his awful side Where long she sat, and check' d the ardent rein, As whirl'd his chariot o'er th' embattled plain; Gilded with sunny smile her April tear.
