      "The unhappy exile, whom his fates confine",
      "To the bleak coast of some unfriendly isle,",
      "Cold, barren, desart, where no harvests smile,",
      "But thirst and hunger on the rocks repine;",
      "When, from some promontory's fearful brow,",
      "Sun after sun he hopeless sees decline",
      "In the broad shipless sea—perhaps may know",
      "Such heartless pain, such blank despair as mine;",
      "And, if a flattering cloud appears to show",
      "The fancied semblance of a distant sail,",
      "Then melts away—anew his spirits fail,",
      "While the lost hope but aggravates his woe!",
      "Ah! so for me delusive Fancy toils,",
      "Then, from contrasted truth—my feeble soul recoils."
