THE FEMALE FRIEND
In this imperfect gloomy scene * of complicated ills, * How rarely is a day serene, * a throbbing bosom still J * Will not a beauteous landscape bright, * or music’s soothing sound * Console the heart- afford delight-. * and throw sweet peace around? * They may- but never comfort lend * like an accomplished female friend® sis »>
With such o. friend tho social hour * in sweetest pleasure glides: . f There is in fomnlo charms a powor * ■ which lastingly abides* - ■ * The fragrance of the blushing roseits tints and splendid huo- * Will, with tho seasons, decompose * and pass as flitting dew. * On firmer ties his joys depend * who has a faithful female friend, • *
* As orbs rovolvo, and years roccdo, * and seasons onward roll, * The fancies may on beauties food , * with discontontod soul. '■ A thousand objects bright and ’fair * may for a moment shine. * Yet many a sigh,, and many a tear * but mark their swift doclino * While lasting joys the man attend „ ' * who has a polished female friend. * £ —Pete Garcon. * . * *>.. <—4 <«• • *• —I **. •— <•».*••••*, W- ***>«« Mt «*> M* 4M «M **•«*■**»«** •»«••»(
