A smile that glow'd Celestial rosy red, love's proper hue.

For smiles from reason flow To brute deny'd, and are of love the food.

I feel in every smile a chain.

Eternal smiles his emptiness betray, As shallow streams run dimpling all the way.

But owned that smile, if oft observed and near, Waned in its mirth, and wither'd to a sneer.

Smiles form the channels of a future tear.
