AN ELEGY UPON MRS. BURNETT.
Rise Heavenly muse, but rise with heavy wing, 
Leave jovial theams, to sing of sader things.
Let louring clouds obscure the glaring light.
Nor let the moon her influence shed by night.
. . . [2 more lines in verse; chorus:]
For Burnett, Ah!  the pious Burnett's gone.
And left us here, her heavy loss to moan.
. . . [5 more verses + last one of 10 lines.]
