  Feeds but the summer-shepherd's little flock
  With scanty herbage from the half-cloath'd rock,
Where osprays, cormorants and sea-mews rest;
  Even in a scene so desolate and rude
I could with thee for months and years be blest;
And, of thy tenderness and love possest,
  Find all my World in this wild solitude!
When Summer suns these northern seas illume
  With thee admire the light's reflected charms,
And when drear Winter spreads his cheerless gloom,
  Still find Elysium in thy shelt'ring arms:
For thou to me canst sov'reign bliss impart,
Thy mind my empire--and my throne thy heart.
