WISHING.
»V SAXE.
Of all amusements for the raiml
From logit down to lhhim;.
There isn't one that you can find
So very cheap as '"wishing!”
A very choice diversion, too’
If we but rightly u-*e it
And not, as we are apt to do,
Pervert Ir, and abuse it.
I wish—a common wish, indeed-*
My purse was something fatter,
That I might cheer the child of need,
And not my pride to flatter ;
That I might make oppression reel,
As only gold can [make it,
And break the tyrant’s rod of steel,
As only gold can break it.
I wish— that sympathy and love,
And every bum ;n passion
That has its origin above,
Would come, and keep in fashion ;
That Scorn, and Jealousy, and Hate,
And every base emotion,
Were buried fifty fathoms deep
Beneath the waves of Ocean.
I wish—that friends were alway, true,
And motives always j•;ir• ■;
I wish the good were not so. few,
I wi h the bad were fewer;
I wish that parson ne’er forgot.
To heed their pious teaching;
I wish that practicing wos not
So different from preaching!
I wish—that modesyt might be
Appraised with truth and candor ;
I wish that innocence were free
From treachery and slander; I
I wish that men their vows would mind,
That woman ne’er were rovers;
T wi-di that wives were always kind,
And husbands always lovers!
I wish—i n fine—that joy and mirth,
And every good ideal.
May come, erewhile, throughout the earth,
To be the glorious Ilea I;
Till God shall every creature bless
With his supremest blessing,
And hope be lost in happiness,
And wishing ill possessing ! v
