Poems (Sewell)/To * * * * * * on her Birth day
To * * * * * *,ON HER BIRTH-DAY.
From bounteous Heaven, as early show'rs are found,
With wond'rous pow'r to fertilize the ground;
Thus, oft the heavy storms of grief and woe,
Bid the sweet buds of heav'nly virtue blow;
They glow with thee, Aspasia!—May they bring
A glorious harvest—an unfading spring!
With wond'rous pow'r to fertilize the ground;
Thus, oft the heavy storms of grief and woe,
Bid the sweet buds of heav'nly virtue blow;
They glow with thee, Aspasia!—May they bring
A glorious harvest—an unfading spring!
