Brother belov’d if health shall smile again,
Upon this wasted form and fever’d cheek:
If e’er returning vigour bid these weak
And languid limbs their gladsome strength regain,
Well may thy brow the placid glow retain
Of sweet content and thy pleas’d eye may speak
The conscious self applause, but should I seek
To utter what this heart can feel, Ah! vain
Were the attempt!Yet kindest friends while o’er
My couch ye bend, and watch with tenderness
The being whom your cares could e’en restore,
From the cold grasp of Death, say can you guess
The feelings which these lips can ne’er express;
Feelings, deep fix’d in grateful memory’s store.
