To a River in Which a Child Was Drowned
Smiling river, smiling river,
On thy bosom sun-beams play;
ting and retreating,
t more deceit they.
In thy channel,
Cones,
Deep immersed, and unhearsed,
Lies young Edwards corse: his bones.
Ever wening, ever wening,
As t them dash;
torrent, in t,
S o wash.
As if senseless, as if senseless
this case;
so blindly, and unkindly,
It destroyd, it now does grace.
