Lines Written Upon a Watch-String, Made and Presented to the Author by Miss
Written upon a Watch-String,
MADE AND PRESENTED TO THE AUTHOR BY MISS — — .
Say, lovely Charlotte! will you let me prove
What diff'rent thoughts thy taste and beauty move?
This woven chain, which graceful skill displays,
Leads me to think of time, and heave a sigh;
But when on thee and on thy charms I gaze,
Time unremember'd moves, or seems to die.
