THE PRINTER’S FAREWELL TO STRAWBERRY-HILL. ^^DIEU ! ye Groves and Gothic Tow’rs, Where I have fpent my youthful Hours, Alas ! I find in vain : Since he who could my Age protedl, By fome myfterious, fad negledl, Has left me to complain ! For thirty Years of Labour part, To meet fuch flight Reward at laft, Has added to my Cares: To quit the quiet Scenes of Life, T’encounter Bus’nefs, Buftle, Strife, Hangs heavy on my Years. Farewell! my Printing-House, farewell!' Where I no more fhall calmly dwell, Within thy peaceful Door : No more in Converfation free, Enjoy my Friend and fip my Tea; Ah ! no ; thofe Days are oer. On thee, my Fellow-Lab’rour, dear. My Press, I drop the filent Tear Of Pity, for thy Lot; For thou, lik^e me, by Time art worn. Like me, too, thou art left forlorn, Negledted and forgot!
