EPITAPH ON A SCHOOLFELLOW . BY THE SAME . LOV'D BANKS , for thee I heave the frequent sigh , For thee the solemn tear bedews mine eye ; No more thy converse blythe shall cheer my day , Or chase the gloom of anxious thought away . And art thou , dear associate ! art thou gone ? Long must thy friend his sudden loss bemoan ; O'er the cold turf where thy pale reliques sleep , Shall fond Remembrance oft repair to weep .
