Governed by impulses of the moment, The inroads of misery and grief Are Blind to a thousand minute circumstances. A thousand conflictions are rendered mute by Dreary imaginations Spent in listless indolence. Occupied by gloomy thoughts, A wretch, haunted by a curse, shuts up every avenue to enjoyment. On willowy islands, The laborerβs are Depressed in mind with Spirits continually agitated by gloomy feelings Enjoying happiness seldom tasted by man. Casting black and impenetrable shades, Mournful appearances are Agitated by a tempest.
