To the Memory of Archibald Home, Esq late Secretary of the
Jerseys, &c. by a Lady.
  Come deck, you drooping nine, your fav'rite's herse,
  With choicest wreaths, and aid my pensive verse;
  O lend such notes, as fell from Tickel's tongue,
  When he the best of friends and poets sung:
  . . . [21 lines]
  But harshly now, I tune the jarring string,
  Depriv'd of thee, who taught me how to sing.
  . . . [2 more lines]
