Last Thursday departed this life at Litchfield, in
Connecticut, Miss Polly Bliss, . . . [ae. 24, 5-line eulogy
followed by]
  Song, beauty, youth, love, virtue, joy:
  This group 
  Of bright ideas, the flow'rs of Paradise,
  As yet unforfeit!  In one blaze we bind,
  Kneel, and present it to the skies; as all
  We guess of heaven: and these were all her own.
