‘Twixt night and morn, upon the horizon’s verge.”

A little still she strove, and much repented,
And whispering ‘I will ne’er consent’Mconsented.”

Or the car rattling o’er the stony street;
On with the dance! let joy be unconfined;
No sleep till morn, when Youth and Pleasure meet
To chase the glowing Hours with flying feet.”
