How fondly did my Lord conceive that we Should shun the place of danger by our flight From Everness The darkness of the day Makes the Heath seem the gloomy walks of death VVe are in danger still they who dare here Trust Providence may trust it any where Maid But this place Madam is more free from terror Last night methoughts I heard a dismal noise Of shrieks and groanings in the air La.
