^^^^ F — SONNET ,
Composed in JBurbag * Wood , October 3 , 1824 .
Ye beautiful green woods , well pleased again I hail your deep e ning shades , and leave the joys Of poor humanity , whoso forms restrain The young * ideas , as they duly rise : — Here Nature sits on an unbounded throne ;—The soul expands;—and of the ambient scene TiYihibes its plan , and feelings scarce her own , Boundless and vast , and beautifully serene ! The mind uncircumscribed , roams o ' er the earth ;—Asks whence the tyrant's power , the pomp of pride , — The law of faction , —the parade of birth , — And feels to nature , and to heaven allied . Hail » ye green woods ! ye have a lesson given , To teach mankind of man , of nature , and of heaven * Hinckley . JOSEPH DARE .

~ TO A DAUGHTER ON THE COMPLETION OF HER 20 th YEAR . i * My youth—so long extinct her fires , No more I wake the sportive lay : Yet , as parental love inspires , ^ I greet , dear Anne , thy natal day . y What though no more the sportive strain $ May suit experience , grave and gfey ; Ne ' er shall my pensive verse complain , As though no sun had cheerM my way . Rather shall rise , at memory ' s call , Bright scenes of bliss , by time endear ed ; Rich boons for ills that life enthral , For all I ' ve felt , and all Pve fearM .
Then pass , dear Anne , thy road of life , Virtue thy aim , content thy treasure ; For knowledge urge the generous strife , Of pleasing oft indulge the pleasure . And , thus , my number ed years survive , Jf such , for good , high Heav'n ' s decree ; Retrace thy varied sixty-five , And , haply , spend a thought on me . J . T . R .
