UNTITLED POEM III.

Published in Washington Irving, Esquire, by George S. Heilman, New York: A. A. Knopf, 1925, pages 45-46. Reprinted by permission of the author.

Tho england’s sons are kind

Their hearts burn warm & true

Yet english hearts you’ll find

Can beat in foreign bosoms too

The good remittance freely rides

And woos the favouring gale

That lightly curls the glassy tides

And fills the swelling sail.

Sigh not Eliza the you leave

England’s shores behind

For other shores may prove as fair

And other climes as kind.

Fair virtue’s plant is not confined

In english soil to keep

Kind heaven convey’d its radiant seed

Across the atlantic deep

Then may you find a happy home

Each stranger prove a friend

Peace be your lot where’er you go

& Joy your steps attend.
