NATURALLY STRIKE THE EYE IN THAT DELIGHT-
FUL SEASON.

BY JAMES FISHER.

I will meditate also of all thy work, and talk of thy doings.

For lo, the winter is past, the rain is over and gone;
the earth, the time of the singing of birds is come, and the
beard in our land.

TO

LADY DOUGLASS OF KELLHEAD,

MADAM,

YOUR exemplary character for benevolence, with every other Christian virtue, so long the boast of your worthy ancestors, together with the honour of the Douglass Family being so well known, anticipates any thing that might come from my pen on these subjects. All I have to observe is, I think myself highly honoured in being allowed to dedicate the following sheets to your Ladyship; which, next to Divine Providence, I commit to your patronage. And that that Almighty Being whose goodness appears so conspicuous in Spring, may bless you and yours, is the sincere wish of,

MADAM,
