Words published with this music in 1800
Saved from the ocean and tempestuous skies,
Reduced to dust, here youth and vigor lies;
Dire scenes I saw on Boston's boisterous shore!
Distressing scenes, myself apart have bore!
Learn this, ye gay, that life's a transient flower,
Which grows, and blooms, and withers in an hour.
By an anonymous author, first published in 1800
