WITH eagerness he drinks the treach`rous potion, Nor stops to rest, by the first taste misled; Sweet is the draught, but soon all power of motion He finds has from his tender members fled; No longer has he strength to plume his wing, No longer strength to raise his head, poor thing! E`en in enjoyment`s hour his life he loses, His little foot to bear his weight refuses; So on he sips, and ere his draught is o`er, Death veils his thousand eyes for evermore.SourceThe script ran 0.003 seconds.
