ON THE CLOSE OF THE OLD AND THE BEGINNING OF THE NEW-YEAR.
My heav'nly muse awake, lift up thine eyes!
And deep in thought, let all thy pow'rs arise!
Come, sing the close of time, with solemn sound, 
When months, when years no more will move around, 
And all the sons of Adam's race must die, 
And meet a vast, a long eternity.
