Address To Wm. Tytler, Esq., Of Woodhouselee
rifle, a head of a bard,
a trifle scarce worthy your care;
but accept it, good sir, as a mark ard,
sincere as a saint's dying prayer.
now life's chilly evening dim shades on your eye,
and ushers the long dreary night:
but you, like the star that athwart gilds the sky,
your course to the test is bright.
