Me friend, I’d breath a wish that thou – Might’st spend thy life in love and peace; - May care’s chill hand ne’er touch thy brow, - But age shed joys as years increase! - And would wish that visions fair – Might ever gild thy thoughts of me, - That thou may’st sometimes breathe a prayer – For one who ever thinks of thee.”
