NOW FIRST COLLECTED:

TO WHICH ARE PREFIXED

TWO DISSERTATIONS:

BY

JOSEPH RITSON, ESQ.

Fairy Elves

Whose midnight revel, by a forest side,

Or fountain, some belated peasant sees,

Or dreams he sees; while over-head the moon

Sits arbitress, and nearer to the earth

Wheels her pale course; they, on their mirth and dance
Intent, with jocund music charm his ear:

At once with joy and fear his heart rebounds.
