��POPE'S WILLOW.
��VERSES
��Written for an Urn, made out of the Trunk of the Weep- ing Willow, imported from the East, and planted by Pope in his Grounds at Twickenham, where it flourish- ed many years ; but, falling into decay, it was lately cut down.
��x!iRE Pope resign'd his tuneful breath. And made the turf his pillow,
The Minstrel hung his harp in death Upon the drooping Willow ;
That Willow from Euphrates' strand,
Had sprung beneath his training hand.
