Part 201 (1/2)

”Crabbed | age and | youth Cannot | live to | -gether; Youth is | full of | pleasance, Age is | full of | care: Youth, like | sue, like | winter | weather; Youth, like | sue, like | winter, | bare

Youth is | full of | sport, Age's | breath is | short, Youth is | nie is | weak and | cold; Youth is | wild, and | age is | tarim_; SINGER'S SHAKSPEARE, Vol ii p 594

_Example II--Common Sense and Genius_

3

”While I | touch the | string, Wreathe , Has, for | once, a | moral!

4

Co; While the | light that | shone, Soon set | Genius | straying

5

One his eye ne'er | rais'd Froaz'd On each | night-cloud | o'er hi, Wreathe , Has, for | once, a | moral!

7

So they | came, at | last, To a | shady | river; Common | Sense soon |pass'd Safe,--as | he doth | ever

8

While the | boy whose | look Was in | heav'n that | minute, Never | saw the | brook,-- _But tu in it_”

_Six Stanzas from Twelve_--MOORE'S MELODIES, p 271

This short measure is much oftener used in stanzas, than in couplets It is, in many instances, combined with so:--

_Exalory | waits thee, But while | fame e | -lates thee, _Oh! still | remem | -ber me_

When the | praise thou | meetest, To thine | ear is | sweetest, _Oh! then | remem | -ber me_

Other | arms may | press thee, Dearer | friends ca | -ress thee, All the | joys that | bless thee, Sweeter | far may | be: But when | friends are | nearest, And when | joys are | dearest, _Oh! then | remem | -ber me_

When, at | eve, thou | rovest, By the | star thou | lovest, _Oh! then | reht we've | seen it | burning; _Oh! thus | remem | -ber me_

Oft as | su | roses, Once so | loved by | thee, Think of | her who | wove them, Her who | made thee | love them; _Oh! then | res, and Airs_, p 107

_Example IV--Froin, Care its | load dis | -charging, _Is lull'd | to gen | -tle rest_:

Britain | thus dis | -ar, _Shall sleep on Cae | -sar's breast_”
