The Public has already most favourably received all the
Literary Performances of Mr. Hayley, which induces the
Printer to present the following recent Publication from the
same justly admired Author.
A CHARM FOR ENNUI. A Matrimonial Ballad.
By William Hayley, Esq.
Ye couples, who meet under love's smiling star,
Too gentle to skirmish, too soft e'er to jar,
Tho' cover'd with roses from joy's richest tree,
Near the couch of delight lurks the daemon Ennui.
