ELEGY by Mr. Shenstone.
He complains how soon the pleasing novelty of life is over. 
To. Mr. J --.
   Ah me my friend! it will not, will not last!
   This fairy scene, that cheats our youthful eyes!
   The charm dissolves; th' aerial music's past;
   The banquet ceases, and the vision flies.
   . . . [14 more verses]
