    Oh! 'tis a precious thing, when wives are dead,
    To find such numbers who will serve instead:
    And in whatever state a man be thrown,
    'Tis that precisely they would wish their own.

My fond affection thou hast seen,
Then judge of my regret
To think more happy thou hadst read more

My fond affection thou hast seen,
Then judge of my regret
To think more happy thou hadst been
If we had never met!
And has that thought been shared by thee?
Ah, no! that smiling cheek
Proves more unchanging love for me
Than labor'd words could speak.
