Where basking Dipsads hiss and swell F. O. 1834.

[489:A] The Asps of the sand-desert, anciently named Dipsads.

And now] Anon F. O. 1834.

Flitting across the idle sense the while F. O. 1834.

That woke enough F. O. 1834.

[29-32]

Idly we supplicate the Powers above:
There is no resurrection for a Love
That uneclips'd, unshadow'd, wanes away
In the chill'd heart by inward self-decay.
Poor mimic of the Past! the love is o'er
That must resolve to do what did itself of yore.

Letter, April 27, 1824.
