Written upon a Watch-String,

MADE AND PRESENTED TO THE AUTHOR BY MISS ----.

Say, lovely Charlotte! will you let me prove
What diff'rent thoughts thy taste and beauty move?
This woven chain, which graceful skill displays,
Leads me to think of time, and heave a sigh;
But when on thee and on thy charms I gaze,
Time unremember'd moves, or seems to die.

[The end]
Sir John Carr's poem: Lines Written Upon A Watch-String
