Yet there thou bloomest on , Like worth by sorrow tried , Rearing its crown 'Micfthe storms of time and tide .
And looking to the sky , Where all suck flowers shall wave CNo more to die ) In the winds beyond the grave . Creditor Feb . 20 , 1826 .

On the visions of life r s young morn ! Many hearts , ere its evening closes , Will be left to bleed forlorn : The tear is the dew of its rqsea , And the rose is the hritfe of the thora .
