My Life had stood -- a Loaded Gun --In Corners -- till a DayThe Owner passed -- identified --And carried Me away --And now We roam the --the --in Sovreign Woods --And now We hunt the Doe --And every time I speak for Him --The Mountains straight reply --And do I smile, such cordial lightUpon the Valley glow --It is as a Vesuvian faceHad let it's pleasure through --And when at Night -- Our good Day done --I guard My Master's Head --'Tis better than the Eider -- Duck'slowlowDeep Pillow -- to have shared --To foe of His -- I'm deadly foe --None harmharmstir the second time --On whom I lay a Yellow Eye --Or an emphatic Thumb --Though I than He -- may longer liveHe longer must -- than I --For I have but the artartpower to kill,Without -- the power to die --
