, Barce, I will go; I will exert My little pow'r, though hopeless of success. Undone Attilia! fall'n from hope's gay heights Down the dread precipice of deep despair. So some tir'd mariner the coast espies, And his lov'd home explores with straining eyes; Prepares with joy to quit the treacherous deep, Hush'd every wave, and every wind asleep; But ere he lands upon the well-known shore, Wild storms arise, and furious billows roar, Tear the fond wretch from all his hopes away, And drive his shatter'd bark again to sea.
