Inscription To Miss Jessy Lewars
Inscription To Miss Jessy Lewars</p>
On a copy of the Susical Museum, in four volumes, preseo her by Burns.</p>
Thihe volumes, Jessy fair,</p>
And with them take the Poet's prayer,</p>
That Fate may, in her fairest page,</p>
With ev'ry ki, best presage</p>
Of future bliss, enroll thy name:</p>
With native worth and spotless fame,</p>
And wakeful caution, still aware</p>
Of ill—but chief, Man's felon snare;</p>
All bmeless joys oh we find,</p>
And all the treasures of the mind—</p>
These be thy guardian and reward;</p>
So prays thy faithful friend, the Bard.</p>
