to lady Isabella K———.
That magic sound shall still express
The gentle, lovely, chaste, and wise,
All that the kindling bard may bless,
All, that to heaven may look and rise!
The gentle, lovely, chaste, and wise,
All that the kindling bard may bless,
All, that to heaven may look and rise!
All that is noble, just, and kind,
True to the bard's benignant spell,
Still swells the breast, refines the mind,
And fills the heart of Isabel!
True to the bard's benignant spell,
Still swells the breast, refines the mind,
And fills the heart of Isabel!
