ON FRIENDSHIP.
If balmy friendship yet survives,
Ah whither is she fled?
Believe the tongues of men, she lives
Their actions speak her dead:
. . . [4 lines]
The gilded cards to feast and ball
The silken guests invite;
They fondly think, 'tis friendship's call;
But pride and pomp indite.
. . . [4 more lines]
