Garret Wesley, 1st Earl of Mornington (in the Irish peerage) is today remembered not so much for his glees as for his siring of the Duke of Wellington.
Lyrics: Anon, probably the composer

Go, happy shade, where pure enjoyments flow;
Be blessed above for generous acts below.
Through seas aetherial, life's rude voyage o'er,
Thou gain'st, at last, an hospitable shore.
Conflicting passions shall no more control;
Sooth'd ev'ry care, and harmonized the soul.
