Mildly gleaming- froni a- far, V See, the image of his Sire Amorous Phoebus how he stretches Forth his hand to Menai fair, And her silvery edge he reaches,, Proudly, through the evening air. How I envy, him his pleasures! See his arm around her waist; How he pours his golden treasures^ At her feet, with^yful haste. But he'll soon wfthdriw his nrms. Other gentle streams await him Which, like Menaj have their charms, K And, like her will fondly greet m.

Menai, With,.Itlajestic grace Glides along Arvonia's vales, While Apollo fans her face, With the balmy evening gales. Hark with sympathizing voice, i Jtfeeonsoles the murmuring^tBeant.; Menai, thou shalt yet rejoice, In the glory of my beam.
