THE

ECONOMY OF VEGETATION.

EXNTO

STAY vov8 RUDE STEPS! whoſe throbbing breaſts infold

The legion-fiends of Glory, or of Gold!

STAY! whoſe falſe lips ſedudtive limpers part, While Cunning neſtles in the harlot-heart!--- For you no Dryads dreſs the roſcate bower, For you no Nymphs their ſparkling vaſes pour; Unmark'd by you, light Graces ſwim the green, And hovering Cupids aim their ſhafts, unſeen.

But Taov! whoſe mind the well-attemper'd ray Of Taſte and Virtue lights with purer day; 40 PART I. B
