This is a digital copy of a book that was preserved for generations on library shelves before it was carefully scanned by Google as part of a project
to make the world's books discoverable online.

It has survived long enough for the copyright to expire and the book to enter the public domain. A public domain book is one that was never subject
to copyright or whose legal copyright term has expired. Whether a book is in the public domain may vary country to country. Public domain books
are our gateways to the past, representing a wealth of history, culture and knowledge that's often difficult to discover.

Marks, notations and other marginalia present in the original volume will appear in this file - a reminder of this book's long journey from the
publisher to a library and finally to you.

TRIUM VIRORUM PRAEFATIO.

QvAM viam praeivit vir eleganti ingenio et doctrina Henricus
Drury, secutus est doctissimus Gulielmus Linwood, cum alter
Arundines Cami, suaves illas et lepore plenas, alter pari felici-
tate Anthologiam contexeret Oxoniensem, eamdem insistimus
non aemulantes nos qvidem: inter duas enim celeberrimas
orbis terrarum Academias unumqve Ludum Litterarium ae-
mulatio esse potest nulla: sed, cum harumce litterarum studia,
qvae veremur ne in dies obsolescant, nondum penitus excidisse
videremus, condendum censuimus eiusmodi monumentum,
qvod posteris hominibus traderet, veteres illas Musas ac Ca-
menas non ad Tamesin solum, sed in Sabrinae etiam ripis
aliqvando vestigia posuisse.

Etenim iam anni sunt amplius qvinqvaginta, ex qvo
Regiae Scholae Salopiensi praefectus est Samuelis Butlerus,
vir omni laude praestantior. Qvi qvid ad litteras antiqvas
excolendas, qvid ad pueros liberalius instituendos contulerit,
sciunt qvidem multi: qvibus autem difficultatibus obluctatus
id effecerit, paucis innotuit, plerisqve vix esset credibile.

v1 TRIUM VIRORUM PRAEFATIO.

Nobis igitur hoc opus aggredientibus spes illa calcar subdidit,
fore ut viri tanti tamqve egregie meriti 'haerentem capiti
multa cum laude coronam' novis qvalibuscumqve floribus
ornaremus.

In Corolla contexenda qvid cuiqve debuerimus, legentibus
erit in propatulo. Qvi nos aut suppetiis instruxerunt aut
ingenuo favore prosecuti sunt, iis, qvotqvot sunt, gratias
agimus et habemus ingentes. Neqve vero dubium est nobis
qvin multi ubiqve sint Salopienses, qvi si consilii nostri fieri
potuissent certiores, summo nos studio nervisqve omnibus
adiuturi fuerint. Hos igitur in primis et benevolum qvemqve
lectorem enixe rogamus, ut huic opusculo nostro faveant, et, si
plura, qvod speramus, non displicuerint, maculis iis, qvas
humana parum caverit natura, offendi se ne patiantur.

EORUMDEM EDITIONIS SECUNDAE PRAEFATIO.

SABRINAE Corolam qvi ante annos novem contexuimus,
iidem Dei beneficio hodie retexentes primum pro virili
parte ita emendavimus ut eam ad antiqvitatis optimae nor-
mam acrius exigeremus ; deinde ita immutavimus auximusqve
ut rerum cum varietati tum dignitati consuleretur ; deniqve ita
concinnavimus, ut carminibus ceteris oco motis, qvod inviti
qvidem sed consulto et cogitato fecimus, ea tantum in nova
editione comparerent, qvae ex alia in aliam lingvam conversa
essent. -taqve librum, nisi omnia nos fallunt, haud paullo
probabiliorem qvam antea fuit, lectoribus nostris paucis illis
qvidem, sed doctis, elegantibus, humanis, in manus tradimus,
dolituri, ut cum Flacco loqvamur, si spe nostra deterius iis
placeat.

SALOPIENSES GRADIBUS ACADEMICIS DIGNATI.

ScHOLAM RkGIAM SALOPIENSEM fundavit Rex Eduardus Sextus A8. MDLI.
eamqve primum Ziberam esse voluit, ut nulli neqve Ecclesiae neqve Col-
legio obnoxia esset, deinde Grammaticalem, ut Litteris docendis inser-
viret. Vectigalia eius auxit Elisabetha Regina, eamqve ita legibus bonis
firmavit ut Publica esset et civibus universis pateret. Itaqve Archidi-
dascalus eius primus Thomas Astonus, vir egregius, novem annis disci-
pulos inscripsit Oppidanos ducentos et triginta, Alienos autem septin-
gentos: qvorum illustrissima duo nomina sunt, Philippus Sidney et Fulke
Greville.

* Philippus Sidney, filius et heres Henrici Sidney, Militis, dd Penshurst
in Comitatu Cantiae, necnon Serenissimi Ordinis Garterii Militis, Regiae
Scholae Salopiensis ordinibus adscriptus est a. d. xvi. Cal. Nov. 4.8. MDLXIv.
Pro Batavorum libertate pugnans cecidit artium centum iuvenis A8.
MDLXXXVI. (P. S)

* Fulke Gryvill, filius et heres Fulki Gryvill, Armigeri, de Beauchamp
Court in Comitatu Varvici/ Regiae Scholae Salopiensis ordinibus ad-
scriptus est a. d. xvi. Cal. Nov. A.8. MDLxiv., qvi, cum titulo et dignitate
Baronis Brook insignitus esset, homicidae manu scelesta cecidit A8.
MDCXXVII.: vir probus et sagax, poeta subtilis, Elisabethae Reginae inter
Ministros, Iacobo Regi e Consiliis Intimis, et Philippi Sidneii amicus. ( B.)

Inseqventi saeculo Scholam illustravit inter alios Georgius Savile;
Marchio de Halifax, vir ornatissimus, civis integerrimus: proximo autem
Ioannes Taylor S.T.P. qvi Demosthenis orationes edidit, οὐ Eduardus
Waring, A.M. Mathematicus insignis, in Academia Cantabrigiensi Pro-
fessor Lucasianus,

Catalogum subiecimus, in qvo recensiti sunt plurimi Salopienses huius
saeculi qvi Gradibus Academicis dignati sunt, et praeter hos alii non-
nulli. Qvem catalogum ita constituimus, ut cuiusqve Collegium, Acade-
miam, statum indicaremus: deinde annum qvo Bacecalaurei gradum con-
secutus sit: deniqve sigla poneremus eorum, qvi Flores ad Sabrinae
Corollam contulerunt. Salopiensium autem anonymorum carmina desig-

My Native Stream.

Pure stream, in whose transparent wave

My youthful limbs I wont to lave,

No torrents stain thy limpid source,

No rocks impede thy dimpling course:

Devolving from thy parent lake,

A charming maze thy waters make,

By bowers of birch, and groves of pine,

And hedges flowered with eglantine.
Still on thy banks, so gaily green,

May numerous herds and flocks be seen,

And lasses chanting o'er the pail,

And shepherds piping in the dale,

And ancient faith that knows no guile,

And industry embrowned with toil,

And hearts resolved, and hands prepared,

The blessings they enjoy to guard.

How dear to me the hour when daylight dies,

And sunbeams melt along the silent sea!
For then sweet dreams of other days arise,

And memory breathes her vesper sigh to thee.
And as I watch the line of light that plays

Along the smooth wave toward the burning west,
I long to tread that golden path of rays,

And think 'twould lead to some bright isle of rest.

There was War in Heaven.

He on his impious foes right onward drove,
Gloomy as night: under his burning wheels

The stedfast empyrean shook throughout,

All but the throne itself of God. Full soon
Among them he arrived, in his right hand
Grasping ten thousand thunders, which he sent
Before him, such as in their souls infixed
Plagues. They, astonished, all resistance lost,
All courage; down their idle weapons dropt.

O'er shields and helms and helmed heads he rode
Of thrones and mighty seraphim prostrate,

That wished the mountains now might be again
Thrown on them as a shelter from his ire.

Nor less on either side tempestuous fell

His arrows, from the fourfold-visaged Four
Distinct with eyes, and from the living wheels
Distinct alike with multitude of eyes.

One spirit in them ruled, and every eye

Glared lightning, and shot forth pernicious fire
Among the accursed, that withered all their strength,
And of their wonted vigour left them drained,
Exhausted, spiritless, afflicted, fallen.

Yet half his strength he put not forth, but checked
His thunder in mid volley ; for he meant

Not to destroy, but root them out of heaven.
The overthrown he raised; and as ἃ herd

Of goats or timorous flock together thronged,
Drove them before him thunderstruck, pursued
With terrors and with furies to the bounds

And crystal wall of heaven, which, opening wide,
Rolled inward, and a spacious gap disclosed

Into the wasteful deep. 'The monstrous sight
Struck them with horror backward, but far worse
Urged them behind; headlong themselves they threw

Down from the verge of heaven: eternal wrath
Burnt after them to the bottomless pit.

Hell heard the unsufferable noise, Hell saw
Heaven ruining from Heaven, and would have fled
Affrighted ; but strict fate had cast too deep
Her dark foundations, and too fast had bound.
Nine days they fell. Confounded Chaos roared,
And felt tenfold confusion in their fall
Through his wild anarchy ; so huge a rout
Encumbered him with ruin. Hell at last
Yawning received them whole, and on them closed;
Hell their fit habitation, fraught with fire
Unquenchable, the house of woe and pain.

An Epitaph.
He died, and left the world behind;
His once wild heart is cold;

His once keen eye is quelled and blind:
What more?—His tale is told. .

He came; and baring his heav'n-bright thought,
He earned the base world's ban;
And, having vainly lived and taught,
Gave place to ἃ meaner man.

The Tan 18 unconquered still!

No change, no pause, no hope! Yet I endure.
I ask the earth, have not the mountains felt?
I ask yon heaven, the all-beholding sun, ᾿
Has it not seen? The sea, in storm or calm,
Heaven's ever-changing shadow, spread below,
Have its deaf waves not heard my agony?

Ah me! alas, pain, pain ever, for ever!

The crawling glaciers pierce me with the

Of their moon-freezing crystals; the bright chains

Eat with their burning cold into my bones.

Heaven's winged hound, polluting from thy lips

His beak in poison not his own, tears up

My heart; and shapeless sights come wandering by,

The ghastly people of the realm of dream,

Mocking me: and the earthquake fiends are charged

To wrench the rivets from my quivering wounds.
saa

In Death they were not divided.

In a green grove
Sat a loving pair;
Fell ὁ bough from above,
Struck them dead there.
Happy for them
That both died together;
So neither was left
To mourn for the other.

I sow thee weep.

I saw thee weep: the big bright tear
Came o'er that eye of blue;

And then methought it did appear
A. violet dropping dew:

I saw thee smile: the sapphire's blaze
Beside thee ceased to shine;

It could not match the living rays
That filled that glance of thine.

As clouds from yonder sun receive
À deep and mellow dye,

Which scarce the shade of coming eve
Can banish from the sky;

Those smiles into the moodiest mind
Their own pure joy impart;

Their sunshine leaves ἃ glow behind

That lightens o'er the heart.

Idyl.

Come down, O maid, from yonder mountain height;
For Love is of the valley; come thou down,
And find him; by the happy threshold, he,
Or hand in hand with Plenty in the maize,
Or red with spurted purple of the vats,
Or fox-like in the vine; nor cares to walk
With Death and Morning on the silver horns;
Nor wilt thou snare him in the white ravine,
Nor find him dropt upon the firths of ice,
That huddling slant in furrow-cloven falls
To roll the torrent out of dusky doors.
But follow: let the torrent dance thee down
To find him in the valley; let the wild
Lean-headed eagles yelp alone, and leave
The monstrous ledges there to slope, and spill
Their thousand wreaths of dangling water-smoke,
That, like ἃ broken purpose, waste in air:
So waste not thou, but come; for all the vales
Await thee; azure pillars of the hearth
Arise to thee; the children call; and I
Thy shepherd pipe, and sweet is every sound,—
Sweeter thy voice, but every sound is sweet:
Myriads of rivulets hurrying through the lawn,
The moan of doves in immemorial elms,
And murmuring of innumerable bees,

The stomach is a thrifty thing:

So Juvenal of old did sing:

I deemed his saying was not sooth;
But now experience proves its truth:
For here is one whose stomach's feats
Procure the food his stomach eats.

Ulysses.

It little profits that an idle king,
By this still hearth, among these barren crags,
Matched with an aged wife, I mete and dole
Unequal laws unto a savage race,
That hoard, and sleep, and feed, and know not me.
I cannot rest from travel: I will drink
Life to the lees: all times I have enjoyed
Greatly, have suffered greatly, both with those
That loved me, and alone; on shore, and when
Thro' scudding drifts the rainy Hyades
Vext the dim sea: I am become ἃ name;
For always roaming with a hungry heart,
Much have I seen and known; cities of men
And manners.

See'st thou yon pimpernel? An hour is past,
And he was holding dalliance with the sun,
All bared his crimson pride: now closed, downcaát,
His blossoms seek their favourite skies to shun.
Young Edwin came, the warning change beheld,
Then hurried to his hinds;.and hark! I hear
His loaded wagons creaking from the field ;
. For storms, he says, and angry hours, are near.
Oh! 'mid the flowers life's tortuous path that strew,
Is there not one like this? E'en as I speak,
Thy bosom-friend's estranged look review,
Remark his icy eye, his smileless cheek:
Adversity is nigh. Speed, counsel how
To soften as thou may'st th' inevitable blow.

O wedding-guest! this soul hath been

Alone on & wide, wide sea:
So lonely 'twas, that God himself
Scarce seemed there to be.

Oh, sweeter than the marriage-feast,
"Iis sweeter far to me,

To walk together to the kirk
With ἃ goodly company:

"To walk together to the kirk,
And all together pray; -
While each to his great Father bends,
Old men and babes, and loving friends,
And youths and maidens gay.

Farewell, farewell! but this I tell
To thee, thou wedding-guest ;
He prayeth well who loveth well

Both man, and bird, and beast.

He prayeth best who loveth best
All things, both great and small;
For the dear God who loveth us,
He made and loveth all.

Oh leave this barren spot to me:

Spare, woodman, spare the beechen tree!
Though bush or flowret never grow

My dark unwarming shade below;

Nor summer-bud perfume the dew

Of rosy blush, or yellow hue;

Nor fruits of autumn, blossom-born,

My green and glossy leaves adorn;

Nor murmuring tribes from me derive
The ambrosial amber of the hive;

Yet leave this barren spot for me:
Spare, woodman, spare the beechen tree!

Thrice twenty summers I have seen

The sky grow bright, the forest green;

And many a wintry wind have stood

In bloomless, fruitless solitude,

Since childhood in my pleasant bower

First spent its sweet and sportive hour;

Since youthful lovers in my shade

Their vows of truth and rapture made,

And on my trunk's surviving frame

Carved many a long-forgotten name.

Oh! by the sighs of gentle sound,

First breathed upon this sacred ground;

By all that Love has whispered here,

Or Beauty heard with ravished ear;

As Love's own altar, honour me;

Spare, woodman, spare the beechen tree!

Syth noughte dothe saye the hearte of stone.
Why thus, my love, so kyndely speake

The Lake has burst.

The lake has burst! the lake has burst!

Down through the chasms the wild waves flee;
They gallop along,
With a roaring song,

Away to the eager awaiting sea!

Down through the valleys, and over the rocks,
And over the forests, the flood runs free;

And wherever it dashes,

The oaks and the ashes
Shrink, drop, and are borne to the hungry sea!

The cottage of reeds and the tower of stone,
Both shaken to ruin, at last agree;

And the slave and his master,

In one wide disaster,
Are hurried, like weeds, to the scornful sea!

The sea-beast he tosseth his foaming mane,
He bellows aloud to the misty sky;
And the sleep-buried "Thunder
Awakens in wonder,
And the Lightning opens her piercing eye!

There is death above, there is death around,
There 18 death wherever the waters be;
There is nothing now doing
Save terror and ruin,
In earth, and in air, and the stormy sea!

The varnished holly's all too bright,
The may-flower and the eglantine
May shade a brow less sad than mine
But, lady, weave no wreath for me,
Or weave it of the cypress-tree.

With tendrils: of the laughing vine;
The manly oak, the pensive yew,
To patriot and to sage be due;

The myrtle-bough bids lovers live,
But that Matilda will not give;
Then, lady, twine no wreath for me,
Or twine it of the cypress-tree.

Let merry England proudly rear

Her blended roses, bought so dear;

Let Albyn bind her bonnet blue

With heath and harebell dipped in dew;
On favoured Erin's crest be seen

The flower she loves of emerald green:
But, lady, twine no wreath for me,

Or twine it of the cypress-tree.

Strike the wild harp, while maids prepare
The ivy meet for minstrel's hair;

And, while his crown of laurel-leaves
With bloody hand the victor weaves,

Let the loud trump his triumph tell;

But when you hear the passing bell,
Then, lady, twine à wreath for me,

And twine it of the cypress-tree.

Hamlet's Soliloquy.

To be, or not to be, that is the question:
Whether "tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune,

Or to take arms against a sea of troubles,

And by opposing end them?—TTo die,—to sleep,—
No more;—and, by a sleep, to say we end

The heart-ache and the thousand natural shocks
That flesh is heir to;—'tis a consummation
Devoutly to be wished. Τὸ die;—to sleep;—

To sleep! perchance to dream ;—ay, there's the rub;
For in that sleep of death what dreams may come,
When we have shufled off this mortal coil,

Must give us pause. "here's the respect

That makes calamity of so long life.

For who would bear the whips and scorns of time,
The oppressors wrong, the proud man's contumely,
The pangs of despised love, the law's delay,

The insolence of office, and the spurns

That patient merit of the unworthy takes,

When he himself might his quietus make

With & bare bodkin? Who would fardels bear

To grunt and sweat under a weary life;

But that the dread of something after death,——

The undiscovered country, from whose bourn

No traveller returns,—puzzles the will,

And makes us rather bear those ills we have,

Than fly to others that we know not of?

Thus conscience does make cowards of us all;

And thus the native hue of resolution

Is sicklied o'er with the pale cast of thought;

And enterprises of great pith and moment,
Whith this regard, their currents turn awry,
And lose the name of action.

Inqve reperta loci natura unde advena nullus

The Happy Spirit.

Bright be the place of thy soul:

No lovelier spirit than thine
E'er burst from its mortal control

In the orbs of the blessed to shine.
On earth thou wert all but divine,

As thy soul shall immortally be;
Ánd our sorrow may cease to repine

When we know that thy God is with thee.

Light be the turf of thy tomb;
May its verdure like emeralds be;
There should not be the shadow of gloom
In aught that reminds us of thee.
Young flowers and an evergreen tree
May spring from the spot of thy rest: .
But nor cypress nor yew let us see,
For why should we mourn for the blest?
"BYRON.

The Sleep of the Brave.

How sleep the brave, who sink to rest
By all their country's wishes blest?
When Spring, with dewy fingers cold,
Returns to deck their hallowed mould,
She there shall dress a sweeter sod
Than Fancy's feet have ever trod. τ᾿

By feiry hands their knell is rung;
By forms unseen their dirge is sung;
There Honour comes, a pilgrim gray,
To bless the turf that wraps their clay;
And Freedom shall awhile repair,
To dwell à weeping hermit there.

The Vegetable Creation.

He scarce had said, when the bare earth, till then
Desert and bare, unsightly, unadorned,

' Brought forth the tender grass, whose verdure clad
Her universal face with pleasant green;

Then herbs of every leaf, that sudden flowered
Opening their various colours, and made gay

Her bosom, smelling sweet: and, these scarce blown,
Forth flourished thick the clustering vine, forth crept
The swelling gourd, up stood the corny reed
Embattled in her field, and the humble shrub,

And bush with frizzled hair implicit: last

Rose, as in dance, the stately trees, and spread
Their branches hung with copious fruit, or gemmed
Their blossoms: with high woods the fields were crowned,
With tufts the valleys, and each fountain-side,

With borders long the rivers: that earth now
Seemed like to heaven, & seat where gods might dwell,
Or wander with delight, and love to haunt

Her sacred shades: though God had yet not rained
Upon the earth, and man to till the gronnd

None was; but from the earth ἃ dewy mist

Went up, and watered all the ground, and each
Plant of the field.

The Destruction of Sennacherib.

The Assyrian came down like the wolf on the fold,
And his cohorts were gleaming in purple and gold,
And the sheen of their spears was like stars on the sea,
Where the blue wave rolls nightly on deep Galilee.

Like the leaves of the forest when summer is green,
That host with their banners at sunset were seen;
Like the leaves of the forest when autumn hath blown,
That host on the morrow lay withered and strown.

For the Angel of Death spread his wings on the blast,
And breathed on the face of the foe as he pass'd,

And the eyes of the sleepers waxed deadly and chill,
And their hearts but once heaved, and for ever grew still.

And there lay the steed with his nostril all wide,

But through it there rolled not the breath of his pride;
And the foam of his gasping lay white on the turf,
And cold as the spray of the rock-beating surf.

And there lay the rider distorted and pale,

With the dew on his brow, and the rust on his mail;
And the tents were all silent, the banners alone,

The lances unlifted, the trumpets unblown.

And the widows of Ashur are loud in their wail,

And the idols are broke in the temple of Baal,

And the might of the Gentile, unsmote by the sword,

Hath melted like snow in the glance of the Lord.

The Woodlands.

Shepherd, I pray thee stay. ' Where hast thou been?
Or whither goest thou? Here be woods as green
As any, air likewise as fresh and sweet
As where smooth Zephyrus plays on the fleet
Face of the curled streams, with flowers as many
As the young spring gives, and as choice as any;
Here be all new delights, cool streams and wells,
Arbours o'ergrown with woodbines; caves and dells.
Choose where thou wilt; whilst I sit by and sing,
Or gather rushes to make many a ring ^
For thy long fingers, tell the tales of love,
How the pale Phoebe, hunting in a grove,
First saw the boy Endymion, from whose eyes
She took eternal fire that never dies;
How she conveyed him softly in a sleep,
His temples bound with poppy, to the steep
Head of old Latmus, where she stoops each night,
Gilding the mountain with her brother's light,
To kiss her sweetest.

Though time hath not wreathed
My temples with snow,

Though age hath not breathed
A spell o'er my brow ;

Yet care's withered fingers
Press on me with pain;

The fleeting pulse lingers,
And lingers in vain.

The eyes which behold thee,
Their brightness is flown;

The arms which enfold thee
Enfeebled are grown ;

And friendship hath left me,
By fortune estranged;

All, all is bereft me,

. For thou too art changed.

Yes, dark ills have clouded
The dawning in tears;
Adversity shrouded
My ripening years;
Life's path, wild and dreary,
Draws nigh to its close;
Heart-broken and weary,
I sigh for repose.

The world shall caress thee,
When I cease to be;

And suns rise to bless thee,
Which smile not for me;

And hearts shall adore thee,
And bend at thy shrine;

But none bow before thee
So truly as mine.

The Daughter, the devoted !

Since our country, our God, O my sire,
Demand that thy daughter expire;

Since thy triumph was bought by thy vow,
Strike the bosom that's bared for thee now.
And the voice of my mourning is o'er,
And the mountains behold me no more:

If the hand that I love lay me low,

There cannot be pain in the blow.

And of this, O my father, be sure,—

That the blood of thy child is as pure

As the blessing I beg ere it flow,

And the last thought that soothes me below.

When the virgins of Salem lament,
Be the judge and the hero unbent:
I have won the great battle for thee,
And my father and country are free.

When this blood of thy giving hath gushed,
When the voice that thou lovest is hushed,
Let my memory still be thy pride,

And forget not I smiled as I died.

Fools they are the only nation
Worth men's envy or admiration ;
Free from care or sorrow-taking, -

All they speak or do is sterling ;
Your fool he is your great man's darling,
And your ladies' sport and pleasure;
Tongue and bable are his treasure;
E'en his face begetteth laughter,
And he speaks truth free from slaughter.

And sometimes the chiefest guest;
Hath his trencher and his stool,
When wit waits upon the fool.

Of his fault and his sorrow behind,

Of a life that for thee was resigned?

Yes, weep, and however my foes may condemn,
Thy tears shall efface their decree;

For Heaven can witness, though guilty to them,
I have been but too faithful to thee.

With thee were the dreams of my earliest love; 3
Every thought of my reason was thine;

In my last humble prayer to the Spirit above
Thy name shall be mingled with mine.

Oh, blest are the lovers and friends who shall live
The days of thy glory to see;

But the next dearest blessing that Heaven can give
Is the pride of thus dying for thee.

Service and obedience,

Ill desert my sovereign lord;
And so good bye, allegiance.

Sad will I be so bereft,

Yet I'll try to make a shift,
My spouse Nancy.

My poor heart then break it must,
My last hour I'm near it;

When you lay me in the dust,
Think how you will bear it.

I will hope and trust in heaven,

Strength to bear it will be given,

Still Ill try to daunt you;
Ever round your midnight bed
Horrid sprites shall haunt you.

To Phyllis.

Phyllis, why should we delay

Pleasures shorter than the day?

Could we (which we never can)

Stretch our lives beyond their span,

Beauty like ἃ shadow flies,

And our youth before us dies:

Or, would youth and beauty stay,

Love hath wings, and will away.

Love hath swifter wings than "Time;

Change in Love to heaven does climb;

Gods, that never change their state,

Vary oft their love and hate.
Phyllis, to this truth we owe

All the love betwixt us two.

Let not you and I inquire

What has been our past desire;

On what shepherd you have smiled,

Or what nymphs I have beguiled:

Leave it to the planets too

What we shall hereafter do:

For the joys we now may prove,

Take advice of present love.

Til the sands thereunder

Round the toiling seaman
In his tossing boat!

Keep such hollow roar;—

Seeking with her cries
Succour superhuman
From the frowning skies ;—

For his father's knee ;—

Dear 4s my little native Vale.

Know ye not that lovely river?
Know ye not that smiling river,
Whose gentle flood
By cliff and wood
With wildering sound goes.winding ever?

Oh, often yet, with feeling strong,

On that dear stream my memory ponders;
And still I prize its murmuring song,

For by my childhood's home it wanders.

There's music in each wind that blows
Around our native valley breathing;
There's beauty in each flower that grows

Around our native woodland wreathing;

The memory of the lightest joys,

In childhood's happy dawn that found us,
Is dearer than the richest toys

The present vainly sheds around us.

O sister, when, mid doubts and fears
That haunt life's onward journey ever,
I turn to those departed years,
And that beloved and lovely river,—

My sinking heart with suffering riven,
And soul with lonely anguish aching,—

It needs my long-taught hope in heaven
To keep that weary heart from breaking.

Gentles, perchance you wonder at this show;
But wonder on, till truth makes all things plain.
This man is Pyramus, if you would know;
This beauteous lady 'Thisby is, certain.
This man, with lime and roughcast, doth present
Wall—that vile wall that did these lovers sunder.
And through wall's chink, poor souls, they are content
To whisper; at the which let no man wonder.
This man, with lantern, dog, and bush of thorn,
Presenteth moonshine; for, if you will know,
By moonshine did these lovers think no scorn
Τὸ meet at Ninus! tomb, there, there to woo.
This grisly beast, which by name lion hight,
The trusty 'Thisby, coming first by night,
Did scare away, or rather did affright.
And as she fled, her mantle she did fall;
Which lion vile. with bloody mouth did stain:
Anon comes Pyramus, sweet youth and tall,
And finds his trusty Thisby's mantle slain.
Whereat with blade, with bloody blameful blade,
He bravely broached his boiling bloody breast;
And, Thisby tarrying in mulberry shade,
His dagger drew, and died. For all the rest,
Let lion, moonshine, wall, and lovers twain,
At large discourse, while here they do remain.

Sweet Moon, I thank thee for thy sunny beams;
I thank thee, Moon, for shining now so bright:

And in his fatal suit prevailed,

The warriors dying groan declared:

The Lond of the Sum.

Know ye the land where the cypress and myrtle

Are emblems of deeds that are done in their clime;
Where the rage of the vulture, the love of the turtle,

Now melt into sorrow, now madden to crime?
Know ye the land of the cedar and vine,
Where the flowers ever blossom, the beams ever shine;
Where the light wings of zephyr, oppressed with perfume,
Wax faint o'er the gardens of Gál in her bloom;
Where the citron and. olive are fairest of fruit,
And the voice of the nightingale never is mute;
Where the tints of the earth, and the hues of the sky,
In colour though varied, in beauty may vie,
And the purple of ocean is deepest in dye;
Where the virgins are soft as the roses they twine,
And all, save the spirit of man, is divine?
"Iis the clime of the East—'"tis the land of the Sun;
Can he smile on such deeds as his children have done?
Oh, wild as the accents of lovers' farewell
Are the hearts which they bear, and the tales which they

To the Nightingale.

O Nightingale, that on yon bloomy spray
Warblest at eve, when all the woods are still,
Thou with fresh hope the lover's heart dost fill,

While the jolly Hours lead on propitious May.

Thy liquid notes, that close the eye of day,

First heard before the shallow cuckoo's bill,
Portend success in love; oh, if Jove's will

Have linked that amorous power to thy soft lay,
Now timely sing, ere the rude bird of hate

Foretell my hopeless doom, in some grove nigh; ,
As thou, from year to year, hast sung too late

For my relief, yet hadst no reason why:

Whether the Muse or Love call thee his mate,

Both them I serve, and of their train am I.

Jealousy cruel as the Grave.

Had it pleased heaven
To try me with affliction; had he rained
All kinds of sores and shames on my bare head;
Steeped me in poverty to the very lips;
Given to captivity me and my utmost hopes;
I should have found in some place of my soul
Α drop of patience; but, alas, to make me
A. fixed figure for the hand of scorn
To point his slow unmoving finger at,—
O! OI
Yet could I bear that too; well, very well:
But there where I have garnered up my heart;
Where either I must live, or bear no life;
The fountain from the which my current runs,
Or else dries up—to be discarded thence!
Patience, thou young and rose-lipped cherubim,
Ay, there, look grim as hell!

Veésions of the Future.

I dipt into the future, far as human eye could see,
Saw the vision of the world, and all the wonder that

would be;
Saw the heavens fill with commerce, argosies of magic
sails,
Pilots of the purple twilight, dropping down with costly
| bales ;

Heard the heavens fll with shouting, and there rained
a ghastly dew .

From the nations! airy navies, grappling in the central .
blue,

Far along the world-wide whisper of the south wind
rushing warm,

With the standards of the peoples plunging through the
thunder-storm; -

Til the war-drum throbbed no longer, and the battle-flags
were furled

In the parliament of man, the federation of the world.

Caledona.

O Caledonia, stern and wild,

Meet nurse for & poetic child;

Land of brown heath and shaggy wood,
Land of the mountain and the flood,

Land of my sires! what mortal hand

Can e'er untie the filial band

That knits me to thy rugged strand?

Still as I view each well-known scene,
Think what is now, and what hath been,
Seems as, to me, of all bereft,

Sole friends thy woods and streams are left ;
And thus I love them better still,

Even in extremity of ill.

By Yarow's stream still let me stray,
Though none should guide my feeble way;
Stil feel the breeze down Ettrick break,
Although it chill my withered cheek;

Still lay my head by 'Teviot stone,
Though there, forgotten and alone,

The bard.may draw his parting groan.

O breathe not his Name.

O breathe not his name, let it sleep in the shade
Where cold and unhonoured his relies are laid;

Sad, silent, and dark be the tears that we shed,

ΑΒ the night-dew that falls on the grass o'er his head!

But the night-dew that falls, though in silence it weeps,
Shall brighten with verdure the grave where he sleeps;
And the tear that we shed, though in secret it rolls,
Shall long keep his memory green in our souls.

Song of Comus.

The star that bids the shepherd fold
Now the top of heaven doth hold;
And the gilded car of day
His glowing axle doth allay
In the steep Atlantic stream ;
And the slope sun his upward beam
Shoots against the dusky pole,
Pacing toward the other goal
Of his chamber in the east.

. Meanwhile, welcome joy and feast,
Midnight shout and revelry,
Tipsy dance and jollity.
Braid your locks with rosy twine, ^
Dropping odours, dropping wine. |
Rigour now is gone to bed,
And advice with scrupulous head,
Strict age and sour severity,
With their grave saws, in slumber lie.
We, that are of purer fire, -
Imitate the starry quire,
Who in their nightly watchful spheres
Lead in swift round the months and years.

My Boat is on the Shore.

My boat is on the shore,
And my bark is on the sea;
But before I go, Tom Moore,
Here's a double health to thee!

Here's a sigh to those who love me,
And a smile to those who hate;

And, whatever sky's above me,
Here's a heart for every fate.

Though the ocean roar around me,
Yet it still shall bear me on;

Though a desert should surround me,
It hath springs that may be won.

Wer't the last drop in the well,
As I gasped upon the brink,
Ere my fainting spirits fell,
"Tis to thee that I would drink.

With that water, as this wine,
The libation I would pour

Should be—fPeace with thine and mine,
And a health to thee, 'Tom Moore!

Freedom.

You ask me why, though ill at ease,
Within this region I subsist,
Whose spirits fail within the mist,

And languish for the purple seas.

It is the land that freemen till,

That sober-suited Freedom chose ;

The land, where gut with friends or foes,
À man may speak the thing he will;

Α land of settled government,
Α land of just and old renown,
Where Freedom broadens slowly down
From precedent to precedent.

Should banded unions persecute
Opinion, and induce ἃ time
When single thought is civil crime,
And individual freedom mute ;

Though Power should make from land to land
The name of Britain trebly great;
Though every channel in the state

Should almost choke with golden sand;—

Yet waft me from the harbour-mouth,
Wild wind! I seek ἃ warmer sky;
And I will see before I die

The palms and temples of the South.

Tearless eye makes careful heart.

I heard thy fate without a tear,
Thy loss with scarce ἃ sigh;

And yet thou west surpassing dear,
Too loved of all to die.

I know not what hath seared mine eye;
The tears refuse to start;

But every drop its lids deny
Falls dreary on my heart.

Yes; deep and heavy one by one
They sink and turn to care,
As caverned waters wear the stone,
Yet dropping harden there.
They cannot petrify more fast
Than feelings sunk remain,
Which coldly fixt regard the past,
But never melt again.

I come from haunts of coot and hern,
I make a sudden sally
And sparkle out among the fern,
To bicker down a valley.
By thirty hills I hurry down,
Or slip between the ridges,
By twenty thorps, a little town,
And half ἃ hundred bridges.

Til last by Philip's farm I flow
To join the brimming river,

For mer may come and men may go,
But I go on for ever.

I clatter over stony ways
In little sharps and trebles,
I bubble into eddying bays,
I babble on the pebbles.

. With many a curve my banks I fret

By many a field and fallow,
And many a fairy foreland set
With willow-weed and mallow.

I chatter, chatter, as I flow
To join the brimming river,

For men may come and men may go,
But I go on for ever.

I wind about, and in and out,
With here a blossom sailing,
And here and there a lusty trout,

And here and there a grayling,

And here and there a foamy flake
Upon me, as 1 travel

With many a silver waterbreak
Above the golden gravel,

The Hymn of Aron.

. Hail, Neptune, greatest of the gods,
Thou ruler of the salt sea floods:
Thou with the deep and dark-green hair,
That dost the golden trident bear:
Thou that with either arm outspread
Embosomest the earth we tread:
Thine are the beasts with fins and scales
That, round thy chariot, as it sails,
Plunging and tumbling, fast and free,
All reckless follow o'er the sea.
Thine are the gentle dolphin throng,
That love and listen to the song;
With whom the sister Nereids stray,
And in their crystal caverns play.
They bore me well to Pelops' isle,
And Sparta's rocky mountain-pile;
And through the deep Sicilian sea
The briny champain ploughed for me,
When wicked men had cast me o'er
Our vessel's side into the roar
Of clashing waters, and a grave
Yawned for me in the purple wave.

Not on the number, but the choice, of friends.

The Chase.

Now my brave youths,
Now give a loose to the clean generous steed,
Flourish the whip, nor spare the galling spur,
But in the madness of delight forget
Your fears. Far o'er the rocky hills we range,
And dangerous our course; but in the brave
True courage never fails. In vain the stream
In fogming eddies whirl8: in vain the ditch,
Wide gaping, threatens death. "The craggy steep,
Where the poor dizzy shepherd crawls with care,
And clings to every twig, gives us no pain;
But down we sweep, as stoop& the falcon bold
To pounce his prey. Then up the opponent hill,
By the swift motion slung, we mount aloft:
So ships in winter seas now sliding sink
Adown the steepy wave, then tossed on high,
Ride on the billows, and defy the storm.

What lengths we pass! Where will the wandering chase
Lead us bewildered? Smooth as swallows skim
The new-shorn mead, and far more swift, we fly.
See my brave pack: now to the head they press,
Jostling in close array, then more diffuse
Obliquely wheel, while from their opening mouths
The volled thunder breaks. So when the cranes
Their annual voyage steer, with wanton wing
Their figure oft they change, and their loud clang
From cloud to cloud rebounds.

O'er that brow a shadow fling?

Go, forget me: and to-morrow

Brightly smile and sweetly sing.
Smile—though I shall not be near thee;
Sing—though I shall never hear thee:
May thy soul with pleasure shine,
Lasting as the gloom of mine.

Like the sun, thy presence glowing
Clothes the meanest things in light;
And when thou, like him, art going,
Loveliest objects fade in night.
All things looked so bright about thee,
That they nothing seem without thee;
By that pure and lucid mind

- Earthly things were too refined.

Go, thou vision, wildly gleaming,
Softly on my soul that fell;

Go, for me no longer beaming,.

Go, and all that once delighted
Take, and leave me all benighted,—

The Siege of Corinth.

"Tis midnight: on the mountains brown
The cold round moon shines deeply down;
Blue roll the waters, blue the sky
Spreads like an ocean hung on high,
Bespangled with those isles of light,

So wildly, spiritually bright ;

Who ever gazed upon them shining,
And turned to earth without repining,
Nor wished for wings to flee away

And mix with their eternal ray ?

The waves on either shore lay there
Calm, clear, and azure as the air;

And scarce their foam the pebbles shook,
But murmured meekly as the brook.
The winds were pillowed on the waves;
The banners drooped along their staves,
And, as they fell around them furling,
Above them shone the crescent curling;
And that. deep silence was unbroke,

Save where the watch his signal spoke,

Save where the steed neighed oft and shrill,
And echo answered from the hill,

And the wide hum of that wild host
Rustled like leaves from coast to coast,

As rose the Muezzin's voice in air,

In midnight call to wonted prayer.

Tt rose, that chanted mournful strain,

Like some, lone spirit's o'er the plain:

"I was musical, but sadly sweet,

Such as when winds and harp-strings meet,
And take a long unmeasured tone,

To mortal minstrelsy unknown.

It seemed to those with the wall

Α cry prophetic of their fall;

The Neck of Venison.

While thus I debated, in reverie centered,

An acquaintance—a friend, as he called himself—entered ;
Án underbred, fine-spoken fellow was he,

And he smiled as he looked at the venison and me.

* What have we got here? "Why, this is good eating!
Your own, I suppose—or is it in waiting?"

* Why, whose should it be?" cried I, with a flounce;
*[ get these things often'—but that was ἃ bounce:

* Some lords, my acquaintance, that settle the nation,
Are pleased to be kind—but I hate ostentation."

*T[f that be the case, then," cried he, very gay, .
*Tm glad to have taken this house in my way.
To-morrow you take a poor dinner with me;

No words—I insist on't—precisely at three:

We'll have Johnson and Burke—all the wits will be there;
My acquaintance is slight, or I'd ask my Lord Clare.
And, now that I think on't, as I am a sinner,

We wanted this venison to make out a dinner.

What say you—a pasty? it shall and it must,

And my wife, little Kitty, is famous for crust.—

Here, porter, this venison with me to Mile-end ;—

No stirring, I beg, my dear friend, my dear friend!"
Thus snatching his hat, he brushed off like the wind,
And the porter and eatables followed behind.

King Cophetua loved the Beggar Maid.

Her arms across her breast she laid;
She was more fair than words can say:
Barefooted came the beggar maid
Before the King Cophetua.
In robe and crown the king stept down
To meet and greet her on her way.
*Tt is no wonder," said the lords,
* She is more beautiful than day."
As shines the moon in clouded skies,
She in her poor attire was seen:
One praised her ancles, one her eyes,
One her dark hair and lovesome mien:
So sweet a face, such angel grace,
In all that land had never been.
Cophetua swore ἃ royal oath:
This beggar maid shall be my queen.

The Mourner.

She is far from the land where her young hero sleeps,
And lovers are round her sighing:

But coldly she turns from their gaze, and weeps,
For her heart in his grave is lying.

She sings the wild song of her dear native plains,
Every note which he loved awaking ;—

Ah little they think who delight in her strains,
How the heart of the minstrel is breaking.

He had lived for his love, for his country he died,
They were all that to life had entwined him;

Nor soon shall the tears of his country. be dried,
Nor long will his love stay behind him.

Oh make her a grave where the sunbeams rest,
When they promise a glorious morrow ;
They'll shine o'er her sleep like ἃ smile from the west,
From her own loved island of sorrow.

Abroad all soul, at home without a heart.

And now, to issue from the glen,
No pathway meets the wanderer's ken,
Unless he climb, with footing nice,
A far-projecting precipice.
The broom's tough roots his ladder made,
The hazel saplings lent their aid;
And thus an airy point he won,
Where, gleaming with the setting sun,
One burnish'd sheet of living gold,
Loch Katrine lay beneath him rolled,
In all her length far winding lay,
With promontory, creek, and bay,
And islands that, empurpled bright,
Floated amid the livelier light, |
And mountains, that like giants stand,
To sentinel enchanted land.

Which hung not, but so swift with tempest fell
On the proud crest of Satan, that no sight,

No motion of swift thought, less could his shield,
Such ruin intercept: ten paces huge

He back recoiled; the tenth on bended knee

His massy spear upstaid ; as if on earth

Sidelong had pushed ἃ mountain from its seat,
Half sunk with all his pines. Ámazement seized
The rebel thrones, but greater rage, to see

Thus foiled their mightiest; ours joy filled, and shout,
Presage of victory, and fierce desire

Of battle: whereat Michaél bid sound

The archangel trumpet; through the vast of heaven
It sounded, and the faithful armies sung
Hosanna to the Highest: nor stood at gaze

'The adverse legions, nor less hideous joined

The horrid shock. Now storming fury rose,

And clamour, such as heard in heaven till now
Was never; arms on armour clashing brayed
Horrible discord, and the madding wheela

Of brazen chariots raged; dire was the noise

Of conflict; over head the dismal hiss

ΟΥ̓ fiery darts in flaming volleys flew,

And flying vaulted either host with fire.

So under fiery cope together rushed

Both battles main, with ruimous assault

And inextinguishable rage. All heaven
Resounded; and had earth been then, all earth

Had to her centre shook.

Nec dubiam pendentem: ea tanto turbine cristis
Mobilibus Satanae superincidit, ut neqve velox

Fulmineam qveat excipiens prohibere ruinam.
Reccidit ille gradus vastos bis qvinqve retrorsum:
In decimo attinuit duplicato poplite nixum
Ingens hasta; velut montem cum sede revulsum
Subterranea vis ventorum aut actus aqvai

Cum trabibus piceis omnem in latus inclinavit
Semirutum. Stupor incessit Titanas et ira;
Saevior ira, palam passo praetore repulsam.

Dat tuba per vacuum, caelestiaqve agmina magna

The οοῖ 5 House.

Captain, or colonel, or knight in arms,

Whose chance on these defenceless doors may seize,

If deed of honour did thee ever please,

Guard them, and him within protect from harms.
He can requite thee: for he knows the charms

That call fame on such gentle acts as these,

And he can spread thy name o'er lands and seas,
Whatever clime the sun's bright circle warms.
Lift not thy spear against the Muses' bower:

The great Emathian conqueror bid spare

The house of Pindarus, when temple and tower
Went to the ground: and the repeated air

Of sad Electra's poet had the power

To save the Athenian walls from ruin bare.

Fondest hopes are ever fleetest ;
Therefore, dear one, fare thee well.

The Slandered One.

Done to death by slanderous tongues
Was the Hero that here lies:
Death, in guerdon of her wrongs,
Gives her fame which never dies:
So the life, that died with shame,
Lives in death with glorious fame.
Hang thou there upon the tomb,
Praising her when I am dumb.

Pardon, Goddess of the night,
Those that slew thy virgin knight;
For the which, with songs of woe,
Rouhd about her tomb they go.
Midnight, assist our moan;
Help us to sigh and groan
Heavily, heavily:
Graves yawn, and yield your dead,
Til death be uttered
Heavily, heavily.

Rich—you were a favoured lover;
Poor—your courting days are over.
Then you were a dear Adonis;
Altered now the fair one's tone is:
Now you fall beneath her knowledge;

Ah, my friend, to heart you're laying
All too late the good old saying:

Friends and Fortune fly together."

But came the waves and washed it away;
Again I wrote it with ἃ second hand,

But came the tide and made my pains his prey.
« Vain man," said she, **that dost in vain assay
A mortal thing so to immortalise ;

For I myself shall like to this decay,

And eke my name be wiped out likewise."

* Not so," quoth I; *let baser things devise

To die in dust, but you shall live by fame:
My verse your virtues rare shall eternise,

And in the heavens write your glorious name;
Where, whenas death shall all the world subdue,
Our love shall live, and later life renew."

Hateful is the dark-blue sky
Vaulted o'er the dark-blue sea.
Death is the end of life; ah, why
Should life all labour be?
Let us alone. 'lTime driveth onward fast,
And in a little while our lips are dumb.
Let us alone. What is.it that will last?
All things are taken from us, and become
Portions and parcels of the dreadful past.
Let us alone. What pleasure can we have
To war with evil? Is there any peace
In ever climbing up the climbing wave?
All things have rest, and ripen toward the grave
In silence, ripen, fall, and cease.

Give us long rest or death, dark death or dreamful ease.

Bees.

Therefore doth Heaven divide
The state of man in divers functions,
Setting endeavour in continual motion;
To which is fixed, as an aim or butt,
Obedience: for so work the honey-bees;
Creatures that, by a rule in nature, teach
The act of order to ἃ peopled kingdom.
They have a king, and officers of sorts:
Where some, like magistrates, correct at home;
Others, like merchants, venture trade abroad;

' Others, like soldiers, armed in their stings,

Make boot upon the summer's velvet buds;
Which pillage they with merry march bring home
To the tent royal of their emperor:

Who, busied in his majesty, surveys

The singing masons building roofs of gold;
The civil citizens kneading up the honey;
The poor mechanic porters crowding in
Their heavy burdens at his narrow gate;
The sad-eyed justice, with his surly hum,
Delivering o'er to executors pale

The lazy yawning drone.

What ills the Scholar's life assai !

Death, old fellow! have we then
Come at last so near each other?

Well, shake hands; and be to me
A quiet friend, a faithful brother.

All those merry days are gone,

Gone with cash and health, old fellow,
When I read long days and nights,

And sometimes (with à friend) got mellow.

Newton! Euclid! fine old ghosts!

Noble books of old Greek learning!
Ah, ye left huge aches behind,

Head and heart and brain all burning.

How I toiled! For one now fled

I wore down the midnight taper,
Labouring, dreaming; till one day

I woke, and found my life—a vapour.

Yet I hoped (ah, laugh not now !)

For wealth and health and fame—the bubble!
So I climbed up wisdom's steeps,

And got a fall, boy, for my trouble.

Now all's over. No one helped,
No one cheer'd my strong endeavour;
So I sank, and called on thee,
And thou wilt be my friend for ever.

Hail to thee, blithe spirit!

Bird thou never wert,
That from Heaven, or near it,
Pourest thy full heart
In profuse strains of unpremeditated art.

Higher still and. higher
From the earth thou springest,
Like a cloud of fire;
The blue deep thou wingest,
And singing still dost soar, and soaring ever singest.

In the golden lightning
Of the &gunken sun,
O'er which clouds are brightening,
Thou dost float and run,
Like an unbodied joy, whose race is just begun.

The pale purple even
Melts around thy flight;
Like a star of heaven
In the broad daylight
Thou art unseen, but yet I hear thy shrill delight.

Keen as are the arrows
Of that silver sphere,
Whose intense lamp narrows
In the white dawn clear,
Until we hardly see, we feel that it is there.

All the earth and air
With thy voice is loud,
As, when night is bare,
From one lonely cloud
The moon rains out her beams, and heaven is over-
flowed.

&ient Love.

Few the words that I have spoken;
True love's words are ever few;

Yet by many a speechless token
Hath my heart discoursed to you.

Souls that to each other listen,
Hear the language of ἃ sigh,
Read the silent tears that glisten
In the tender trembling eye.

When your cheek is pale with sadness,
Dimmer grows the light of mine,

And your smiles of sunny gladness

. In my face reflected shine.

Though my speech is faint and broken,
Though my words are ever few,

Yet by many a voiceless token
All my heart is known to you.

True Beauty. .

Men call you fair, and you do credit it,
For that yourself you daily such do see;
But the true fair, that is the gentle wit
And virtuous mind, is much more praised by me.
For all the rest, however fair it be,
Shall turn to nought, and lose their glorious hue;
But only that is permanent and free
From frail corruption, that doth flesh ensue.
That is true beauty, that doth argue you
To be divine, and born of heavenly seed;
Derived from that fair spirit from whom all true
And perfect beauty did at first proceed.
He only fair, and what he fair hath made;
All other fair, like flowers, untimely fade.

Awake, /Eolhan Lyre, awake,
And give to rapture all thy trembling strings.
From Helicon's harmonious springs
A thousand rills their mazy progress take:
The laughing flowers that round them blow,
Drink life and fragrance as they flow.
Now the rich stream of music winds along
Deep, majestic, smooth and strong,
Thro' verdant vales and Ceres' golden reign:
Now rolling down the steep amain,
Headlong, impetuous, see it pour;
The rocks and nodding groves rebellow to the roar.
O sovereign of the willing soul,
Parent of sweet and solemn-breathing airs,
Enchanting Shell, the sullen Cares
And frantic Passions hear thy soft control.
On Thracia's hills the Lord of War
Has curbed the fury of his car,
And dropped his thirsty lance at thy command:
Perching on the sceptred hand
Of Jove, thy magic lulls the feathered king
With ruflled plumes and flagging wing:
Quenched in dark clouds of slumber lie
The terrors of his beak and lightnings of his eye.
Thee the voice, the dance, obey, |
Tempered to thy warbled lay.

The Half exceeds the Whole.

Brave Hylas, once the hamlet's pride,
One-handed now, one-legged, one-eyed,
From war discharged, Lycoris prest

With tearful rapture to her breast.

* And canst thou, dearest, gladly see

A lover thus unmeet for thee?

Antinous, handsome, rich, and young,
Whom matrons court with flattering tongue
And maids with sidelong glance approve,
Antinous whispers vows of love:

What hope for Hylas, luckless elf,

Who brings from battle—half himself?"
Smiled through her tears the blushing maid,
And, * Not a rush," she fondly said,

* For all Antinous would I give:

With half my Hylas let me live."

What his breast forges, that his tongue must vent;
And being angry, does forget that ever
He heard the name of death.

A Song of Twopence.
Sing ἃ song of twopence,

A basket full of barley,
Twice four hens and chickens

Getting up 80 early.
When they saw their victuals,

The birds began to want 'em:
Was it not a dainty dish

To set before the bantam?

Papa was in his study
Reading Greek and Latin:

Mamma was in the wardrobe
Folding silk and satin:

The hen was in the garden
Walking on both legs,
There came a little Arthur

And picked up two eggs.

The Random Shot.
(Painted by Sir E. Landseer, R.A.)

O Huntress Queen, this pictured meed
The artist hangs within thy shrine,
Memorial of & bitter deed,
Diana, wrought by thee or thine.
From its dam's teat with deep-drawn breath
A fawn requires its wonted food;
The wounded mother, faint in death,
Reddens the mountain snows with blood.
Yet why the piteous sight deplore?
Nay, goddess, lay thy shafts aside;
And in the chase delight no more,
Or let those idle tears be dried.

The Luxury of Tears.

O snatched away in beauty's bloom,
On thee shall press no ponderous tomb;
But on thy turf shall roses rear
Their leaves, the earliest of the year,
And the wild cypress wave in tender gloom.

And oft by yon blue gushing stream
Shall sorrow lean her drooping head,

And feed deep thought with many ἃ dream,
And lingering pause and lightly tread,

Fond wretch, as if her step disturbed the dead.

Away! we know that tears are vain,
That death nor heeds nor hears distress :—
Will this unteach us to complain,
Or make one mourner weep the less?
And thou, who tellst me to forget,
Thy looks are wan, thine eyes are wet.

Justice.

She was a virgin of austere regard,

Not as the world esteems her, deaf and blind ;

But as the eagle that hath oft compared

Her eye with heaven's, so and more brightly shined

Her lamping sight; for she the same could wind

Into the solid heart, and with her ears

The silence of the thought loud speaking hears,
And in one hand a pair of even scales she wears.

The Mariners of England.

Ye Mariners of England,
Who guard our native seas,
Whose flag has braved a thousand years
The battle and the breeze,
Your glorious standard launch again
To meet another foe,
And sweep through the deep,
While the stormy winds do blow,
While the battle rages loud and long,
And the stormy winds do blow.

The spirits of your fathers
Shall start from every wave;
For the deck it was their field of fame,
And ocean was their grave:
Where Blake and mighty Nelson fell,
Your manly breasts shall glow,
As ye sweep through the deep,
While the stormy winds do blow,
While the battle rages loud and long,
And the stormy winds do blow.

Britannia needs no bulwark,
No towers along the steep;
Her march is o'er the mountain waves,
Her home is on the deep.
With thunders from her native oak
She quells the floods below,
As they roar on the shore,
When the stormy winds do blow,
When the battle rages loud and long,
And the stormy winds do blow.

The meteor-Hag of England
Shall yet terrific burn,

Til danger's troubled night depart,
And the star of peace return.

Night waneth fast, the morning star
Saddens with light the glimmering sea,
Whose waves shall soon to realms afar
Waft me from hope, from love, and thee.

Coldly the beam from yonder sky

Looks o'er the waves that onward stray ;
But colder still the stranger's eye

To him whose home is far away.
Oh, not, at hour so chill and bleak

Let thoughts of me come o'er thy breast;
But of the lost one think and speak

When summer suns sink calm to rest.
So, as I wander, fancy's dream

Shall bring me o'er the sunset seas
Thy look in every melting beam,

Thy whisper in each dying breeze.

The happy Man.
He cannot skim the ground like summer birds
Pursuing gilded flies; and such he deems
Her honours, her emoluments, her joys.
Therefore in Contemplation is his bliss,
Whose power is such, that whom she lifts from earth
She makes familiar with a heaven unseen,
And shows him glories yet to be revealed.
Not slothful he, though seeming unemployed
And censured oft as useless. Stillest streams
Oft water fairest meadows, and the bird
That flutters least, is longest on the wing.
Ask him indeed what trophies he has raised,
Or what achievements of immortal fame
He purposes, and he shall answer—WNone.
His warfare is within. "There unfatigued
His fervent spirit labours. "There he fights,
And there obtains fresh triumphs o'er himself
And never-withering wreaths, compared with which
'The laurels that ἃ Caesar reaps are weeds.

To Mary 1n Heaven.

Thou lingering star, with lessening ray
That lov'st to greet the early morn,
Again thou usherest in the day
My Mary from my soul was torn.
O Mary, dear departed shade!
Where is thy place of blissful rest?
Seest thou thy lover lowly laid?
Hearst thou the groans that rend his breast?

That sacred hour can I forget,
Can I forget the hallowed grove,
Where by the winding Ayr we met,
To live one day of parting love?
Eternity will not efface '
Those records dear of transports past;
Thy image at our last embrace—
Ah, little thought we 'twas our last!

Ayr gurgling kissed his pebbled shore,
O'erhung with wild woods, thickening green;
The fragrant birch and hawthorn hoar
Twined amorous round the raptured scene;
The flowers sprang wanton to be prest,
The birds sang love on every spray;
Till too, too soon, the glowing west
Proclaimed the speed of winged day.

Still o'er these scenes my memory wakes,
And fondly broods with miser care;
Time but the impression deeper makes,
As streams their channels deeper wear.
My Mary, dear.departed shade!
Where is thy place of blissful rest?
Seest thou thy lover lowly laid?
Hearst thou the groans that rend his breast?

Peace be around thee wherever thou rovest,
May life be for thee one summer's day,
And all that thou wishest, and all that thou lovest,

Come smiling around thy sunny way!
If sorrow o'er this calm should break,
May even thy tears pass off so lightly,
That, like spring showers, they only make
The smiles that follow shine more brightly !

May Time, who sheds his blight o'er all,
And daily dooms some joy to death,
O'er thee let years so gently fall,
They shall not crush one flower beneath!
As half in shade and half in sun
This world along its path advances,
May that side the sun's upon
Be all that e'er shall meet thy glances!

And the fond boy springs back to nestle there.

Wide-hovering, all the clouds together drove

From under heaven; the hills to their supply

Vapour and exhalation dusk and moist

Sent up amain. And now the thickened sky

Like ἃ dark ceiling stood; down rushed the rain

Impetuous; and continued, till the earth

No more was seen: the floating vessel swum

Uplifted, and secure with beaked prow

Rode tilting o'er the waves; all dwelling else

Flood overwhelmed, and them with all their pomp

Deep under water rolled; sea covered sea, .

Where luxury late reigned, sea monsters whelped

And stabled; of mankind, so numerous late,

All left in one small bottom swum imbarked.

For Winter came.

The mill-wheel's frozen in the stream,
The church is decked with holly;

Misletoe hangs from the kitchenbeam,
To fright away melancholy;

Icicles clink in the milkmaid's pail,
Younkers skate on the pool below,

Blackbirds perch on the gardenrail;
And hark, how the cold winds blow!

There goes the squire to shoot at snipe;
Here runs Dick to fetch a log;
You'd swear his breath was the smoke of a pipe
In the frosty morning fog.
Hodge is breaking the ice for the kine;
Old and young cough as they go;
The round red sun forgets to shine;
And hark, how the cold winds blow!

Lines from the German.

Let me wander where she walks
In the blessed calm of even;

Let me listen when she talks ;
Jove, I envy not thy heaven.

Love within my bosom's cell
Hermit-like doth ever dwell:
Hope and Joy may leave my heart;
Love and I will never part.

A Perfect Woman.
This morning timely rapt with holy fire,
I thought to form unto my zealous Muse
What kind of creature I could most desire
To honour, serve, and love, as poets use.
I meant the day-star should not brighter rise,
Nor lend like influence from his lucent seat;
I meant each softest virtue there should meet,
Fit in that softer bosom to reside.
Only a learned and ἃ manly soul
I purposed her, that should with even powers
The rock, the spindle, and the shears control
Of Destiny, and spin her own free hours:
Such when I meant to feign, and wished to see,
My Muse bade Bedford write, and that was she.

Horatius Cocles.

When the oldest cask is opened,
And the largest lamp is lit;
When the chestnuts glow in the embers,

And the kid turns on the spit;
When young and old in circle
Around the firebrands close;
When the girls are weaving baskets,
And the lads are shaping bows;
When the goodman mends his armour,
And trims his helmet's plume;
When the goodwife's shuttle merrily
: Goes flashing through the loom;
With weeping and with laughter
Still is the story told,
How well Horatius kept the bridge
In the brave days of old.

Oenone.

There lies à vale in Ida, lovelier
Than all the valleys of Ionian hills.
The swimming vapour slopes athwart the glen,
Puts forth an arm, and creeps from pine to pine,
And loiters, slowly drawn. On either hand
The lawns and meadow-ledges midway down
Hang rich in flowers, and far below them roars
The long brook fallng through the cloven ravine
In cataract after cataract to the sea.
Behind the valley topmost Gargarus
Stands up and takes the morning; but in front
The gorges, opening wide apart, reveal
Troas and llion's columned citadel,
The crown of Troas.

Hither came at noon
Mournful Oenone, wandering forlorn
Of Paris, once her playmate on the hills.
Her cheek had lost the rose, and round her neck
Floated her hair, or seemed to float, in rest.
She, leaning on a fragment twined with vine,
Sang to the stillness, till the mountain shade
Sloped downward to her seat from the upper cliff.

O mother Ida, many-fountained Ida,
Dear mother Ida, hearken ere I die.
For now the noonday quiet holds the hill;
The grasshopper is silent in the grass;
The lizard, with his shadow on the stone,
Rests like ἃ shadow; and the cicala sleeps.
The purple flowers droop; the golden bee
Is lily-cradled: I alone awake.
My eyes are full of tears, my heart of love,
My. heart is breaking, and my eyes are dim,
And I am all aweary of my life.

The Soltary Poet.

There was a Poet, whose untimely tomb

No human hands with pious reverence reared,
But the charmed eddies of autumnal winds
Built o'er his mouldering bones a pyramid

Of mouldering leaves in the waste wilderness.
A lovely youth, no mourning maiden decked
With weeping flowers, or votive cypress wreath,
The lone couch of his everlasting sleep: —
Gentle, and brave, and generous, no lorn bard
Breathed o'er his dark fate one melodious sigh:
He lived, he died, he sung in solitude.
Strangers have wept to hear his passionate notes;
And virgins, as unknown he past, have sighed
And wasted for fond love of his wild eyes.
'The fire of those soft orbs has ceased to burn,
And Silence, too enamoured. of that voice,

Locks its mute music in her rugged cell.

E del canto invaghito
Con miracol gentil prese di Giove

Nightly to thee her sad song mourneth well;

So mayst thou be translated to the skies,
And give resounding grace to all heaven's harmonies!

The winds are high on Helle's wave,
As on that night of stormy water,
When Love, who sent, forgot to save
The young, the beautiful, the brave,
The lonely hope of Sestos' daughter.
Oh, when at night along the sky
Her turret-torch was blazing high,
Though rising gale and breaking foam
And shrieking sea-birds warned him home;
And clouds aloft and tides below,
With signs and sounds, forbade to go;
He could not see, he would not hear,
Or sound or sign foreboding fear;
His eye but saw that light of love,
The only star it hailed above;
His ear but rang with Hero's song,
* Ye waves, divide not lovers long."
That tale is old ; but love anew
May nerve young hearts to prove as true.
BYRON.

Whshes.

Sweet be her dreams, the fair, the young;
Grace, beauty, breathe upon her;
Musie, haunt thou about her tongue;
Life, fill her path with honour.

All golden thoughts, all wealth of days,
Truth, friendship, love surround her;
So may she smile till life be closed,
And angel-hands have crowned her.

Cumqve Amor emisit, qvamvis servare per undas
Emissum iuvenem non meminisset Amor.

At formosus erat puer, at fortissimus idem,

Desuper hune nubes, infra licet aestus aqvarum
Mille vetet signis pergere, mille sonis;

Non oculis qvidqvam nisi flammam aspexit amoris;

Swmmer 1s come.

The great sun
Scattering the clouds with a resistless &mile
Came forth to do thee homage; & sweet hymn
Was by the low winds chaunted in the sky;
And when thy feet descended on the earth
Scarce could they move amid the clustering flowers
By nature strewn o'er valley, hill and field,
To hail her blest deliverer.—Ye fair trees,
How are ye changed and changing while I gaze!
It seems as if some gleam of verdant light
Fell on you from a rainbow; but it lives
Amid your tendrils, brightening every hour
Into a deeper radiance. Ye sweet birds,
Were you asleep through all the wintry hours
Beneath the waters, or in mossy caves?

| Yet are ye not,
Sporting in tree and air, more beautiful
Than the young lambs that from the valley-side
Send a soft bleating, like an infant's voice
Half happy half afraid. Ο blessed things,
At sight of this your perfect innocence
The sterner thoughts of manhood melt away
Into ἃ mood as mild as woman's dreams:
The strife of working intellect, the stir
Of hopes ambitious, the disturbing sound
Of fame, and all that worshipped pageantry
That ardent spirits burn for in their pride,
Fly like disparting clouds, and leave the soul
Pure and serene as the blue depths of heaven.

Lamentation.

Swifter far than summer's flight,

— Swifter far than youth's delight,

Swifter far than happy night,

Art thou come and gone.
As the earth when leaves are dead,
As the night when sleep is sped,
As the heart when joy is fled,

I am left lone, alone.

The swallow summer comes again;
The owlet night resumes her reign;

But the wild swan youth is fain

To fly with thee, false as thou.
My heart each day desires the morrow,
Sleep itself is turned to sorrow,
Vainly would my winter borrow
Sunny leaves from any bough.

Lilies for ἃ bridal bed,
Roses for a matron's head,
Violets for à maiden dead,—
Pansies let my flowers be:
On the living grave I bear
Seatter them without a tear;
Let no friend, however dear,
Waste one hope, one fear for me.

The Battle of Hohenlinden.

On Linden, when the sun was low,
All bloodless lay th' untrodden snow,
And dark as winter was the flow
Of Iser, rolling rapidly.
But Linden saw another sight
When the drum beat at dead of night,
Commanding fires of death to light
The darkness of her scenery.

By torch and trumpet fast arrayed

Each horseman drew his battle-blade,

And furious every charger neighed
To join the dreadful revelry.

"Then shook the hills with thunder riven,

Then rushed the steed to battle driven,

And louder than the bolts of heaven
Far flashed the red artillery.

But redder yet that light shall glow
On- Linden's hills of stained snow,
And bloodier yet the torrent flow
Of Iser, rolling rapidly.
"Iis morn, but scarce yon level sun
Can pierce the war-clouds rolling dun,
Where furious Frank and fiery Hun
Shout in their sulph'rous canopy.

The combat deepens. On, ye brave,

Who rush to glory, or the grave!

Wave, Munich, all thy banners wave,
᾿ And charge with all thy chivalry!

Few, few shall part where many meet;

The snow shall be their winding-sheet,

And every turf beneath their feet
Shall be a soldier's sepulchre.

The Nightingale.

A maiden fair in days of eld
Bemoaned her hapless fate:

The sire of gods and men beheld
With eye compassionate.

Forthwith transmuted to ἃ bird,
Her deftly warbled tale

In many a forest-glade is heard:
She is—the Nightingale.

It so fell out, one summer's day,
Beneath 4 verdant hill,

She tuned her fullest, sweetest lay,
A. consort's heart to thrill.

Love drank the liquid notes, and strove
From that delicious hour

To work, in rivalry of Jove,
A. deed of equal power.

The bird, whose music rich. and rare
Entranced the listening wind,

He changed into a maiden fair;
And she is—JENNY LiND.

The Indian Tree.

They tell us of an Indian tree,
Which, howsoe'er the sun and sky

May tempt its boughs to wander free,
And shoot and blossom wide and high,

Yet better loves to bend its arms
Downwards again to that dear earth,

From which the life, that fills and warms
Its grateful being, first had birth.

E'en thus, though wooed by flattering friends,
And fed with fame, (if fame it be),

This heart, my own.dear mother, bends
With love's true instinct back to thee.

"Iwas I that gave thee thy renown:
Thou hadst in the forgotten crowd
Of common beauties lived unknown,
Had not my verse exhaled thy name,
And with it imped the wings of fame.

That killing power is none of thine,

I gave it to thy voice and eyes; .
Thy sweets, thy graces, all are mine;

Thou art my star, shin'st in my skies.
Then dart not from thy. borrowed sphere
Lightning on him that fixed thee there.

To whom replied King Arthur, much in wrath:

Ah, miserable and unkind, untrue,

Unknightly, traitor-hearted! Woe is me!

Authority forgets a dying king,

Laid widowed of the power in his eye

That bowed the will. I see thee what thou art.

For thou the latest left of all my knights,

In whom should meet the offices of all,

Thou wouldst betray me for the precious hilt;

Either from lust of gold, or like a girl

Valuing the giddy pleasure of the eyes.

Yet, for à man may fail in duty twice,

And the third time may prosper, get thee hence:

But if thou spare to fling Excalibur,

I will arise and slay thee with my hands.

The Autumn is old,

The sere leaves are flying;
He hath gathered up gold,
And now he is dying:
Old age, begin sighing.

The vintage is ripe,

The harvest is heaping;
But some that have sowed
Have no riches for reaping:
Poor wretch, fall a weeping.

The year's in the wane,
There is nothing adorning;
The night has no eve,

And the day has no morning:
Cold winter gives warning.

'The rivers run chill,
The red sun is sinking,
And I am grown old,
And life is fast shrinking:
Here's enow for sad thinking.

The Dons.

There is à flower, ἃ little flower,
With silver crest and golden eye,

'That welcomes every changing hour,
And weathers every sky.

The prouder beauties of the field
In gay but quick succession shine,
Race after race their honors yield,
They flourish and decline.

But this small flower, to Nature dear,
While moons and stars their courses run,

Wreathes the whole circle of the year,
Companion of the sun.

It smiles upon the lap of May,
To sultry August spreads its charms,

᾿ Lights pale October on his way,

And twines December's arms.

The purple heath and golden broom
On moory mountains catch the gale;

O'er lawns the lily sheds perfume,
The violet in the vale.

But this bold flow'ret climbs the hill,

. Hides in the forest, haunts the glen,

Plays on the margin of the rill,
Peeps round the fox's den.

Within the garden's cultured round
It shares the sweet carnation's bed;

And blooms on consecrated ground
In honour of the dead.

The lambkin crops its crimson gem,
The wild bee murmurs on its breast,

The blue-fly bends its pensile stem
Light o'er the skylark's nest.

Evening.

It is the hour when from the boughs
The nightingale's high note is heard ;
It is the hour when lovers! vows
Seem sweet in every whispered word;
And gentle winds and waters near
Make music to the lonely ear.
Each flower the dews have lightly wet,
And in the sky the stars are met,
And on the wave is deeper blue,
And on the leaf à browner hue,
And in the heaven that clear obscure,
So softly dark and darkly pure,
Which follows the decline of day,
As twilight melts beneath the moon away.

That Parisina leaves her hall;
And it is not to gaze on the heavenly light
That the lady walks in the shadow of night ;
And if she sits in Este's bower,
"Iis not for the sake of its full-blown flower;
She listens—but not for the nightingale,
Though her ear expects as soft a tale.
There glides a step through the foliage thick,
And her cheek grows pale, and her heart beats quick;
There whispers a voice through the rustling leaves,
And her blush returns and her bosom heaves:
À moment more, and they shall meet ;
"Tis past—her lover's at her feet.

At non egreditur foribus Parisina superbis
Audiat ut strepitum desilientis aqvae;
Nec vaga nigrantes regina perambulat umbras

The Man who had Nought.

There was ἃ man, and he had nought,
And robbers came to rob him; |
He got up the chimney-top,
And then they thought they had him.

He got down on th' other side,
And then they could not find him;
He ran fourteen miles in fifteen days,
And never looked behind him.

Inscription on α Boat.

They say that I am small and frail,
And cannot live in stormy seas.
It may be 80; yet every sail
Makes shipwreck in the swelling breeze.

Nor strength nor size can then hold fast,
. But Fortune's favour, Heaven's decree.
Let others trust in oar and mast,
But may the gods take care of me!
C. MERIVALE ( from the G'reek).

Masque.

Spring all the graces of the age,
And all the loves of time;
Bring all the pleasures of the stage,
And relishes of rhyme ;
Add all the softnesses of courts,
The looks, the laughters, and the sports;
And mingle all the sweets and salts,
That none may say, The triumph halts.

Martinmas.

It is the day of Martelmas;
Cups of ale should freely pass.
What though winter has begun
To push down the summer sun?
To our fire we can betake,

And enjoy the erackling brake,
Never heeding winter's face

On the day of Martelmas.

Some do the city now frequent,
Where costly shows and merriment
Do wear the vapourish evening out
With interlude and revelling rout,
Such as did pleasure England's queen,
When here her royal grace was seen;
Yet will they not this day let pass,
The merry day of Martelmas.

When the daily sports be done,
Round the market-cross they run,
Prentice lads and gallant blades
Dancing with their gamesome maids;
Till the beadle, stout and sour,
Shakes his bell, and calls the hour;
Then farewell lad and farewell lass
To the merry night of Martelmas.

Martelmas shall come again,

Spite of wind and snow and rain;

But many a strange thing must be done,
Many a cause be lost and won,

Many a tool must leave his pelf,

Many a worldling cheat himself,

And many a marvel come to pass,

Before return of Martelmas.

This firstling of the infant year:

Ask me why I send to you |
This primrose all bepearled with dew;

I straight will whisper in your ears,

The sweets of love are washed with tears.

Ask me why this flower doth show

So yellow, green, and sickly too;

Ask me why the stalk is weak,

And bending, yet it doth not break;

I must tell you, these discover

What doubts and fears are in a lover.

Take, oh take those lips away.

Take, oh take those lips away,
That so sweetly were forsworn;

And those eyes, the break of day,
Lights that do mislead the morn:

But my kisses bring again,

Seals of love, but sealed in vain.

Hide, oh hide those hills of snow,
Which thy frozen bosom bears,
On whose tops the pinks that grow
Are of those that April wears:
But first set my poor heart free,
Bound in those icy chains by thee.

Unheard in summer's flaring ray,
Pour forth thy notes, sweet singer,
Wooing the stillness of the autumn day ;
Bid it ἃ moment linger,

Too soon from winter's scowling eye.

And hers who gay ascends,
Filing the heavens far and wide,
Are sweet; but none so blends
As thine
With calm decay and peace divine.

And all the people trembled,
And pale grew every cheek;

And Sergius the high pontiff
Alone found voice to speak:

The gods, who live for ever,
Have fought for Rome to-day!
These be the great Twin Brethren

To whom the Dorians pray.

Back comes the chief in triumph,
Who in the hour of fight

Hath seen the great Twin Brethren
In harness on his right.

Safe comes the ship to haven

Through billows and through gales,
If once the great Twin Brethren
Sit shining on the sails.

The Sleeping Love.

As late each flower that sweetest blows
I plucked, the garden's pride,
Within the petals of ἃ rose
Α sleeping Love I spied.

Around his brows a beamy wreath
Of many a lucent hue;

All purple glowed his cheek beneath,
Inebriate with dew.

I softly seized the unguarded Power,
Nor scared his balmy rest ;

And placed him, caged within the flower,
On spotless Sara's breast.

But when, unweeting of the guile,
Awoke the prisoner sweet,

He struggled to escape awhile,
And stamped his faery feet.

Ah, soon the soul-entrancing sight
Subdued the impatient boy;

He gazed; he thrilled with deep delight ;
Then clapped his wings for joy.

The ArchWect of Hell.

The ascending pile
Βιοοά fixed her stately height; and straight the doors,
Opening their brazen folds, discover wide
Within her ample spaces, o'er the smooth
And level pavement: from the arched roof
Pendent by subtle magic, many a row
Of starry lamps, and blazing cressets, fed
With naphtha and asphaltus, yielded light :
As from a sky. "The hasty multitude
Admiring entered; and the work some praise,
And some the architect: his hand was known
In heaven by many a towered structure high,
Where s8ceptred angels held their residence,
And sat as princes; whom the supreme King
Exalted to such power, and gave to rule,
Each in his hierarchy, the orders bright.
Nor was his name unheard or unadored
In ancient Greece; and in Ausonian land
Men called him Muleiber; and how he fell
From heaven, they fabled, thrown by angry Jove
Sheer o'er the crystal battlements: from morn
To noon he fell, from noon to dewy eve,
Α summer's day; and with the setting sun
Dropped from the zenith like a falling star,
On Lemnos, the /Egean isle: thus they relate,
Ering; for he with this rebellious rout
Fell long before; nor aught availed him now
To have built in heaven high towers; nor did he scape
By all his engines, but was headlong sent
With his industrious crew to build in hell.

Eve.

With thee conversing, I forget all time,
All seasons, and their change; all please alike.
Sweet is the breath of morn, her rising sweet,
With charm of earliest birds; pleasant the sun,
When first on this delightful land he spreads
His orient beams, on herb, tree, fruit, and flower,
Glistering with dew: fragrant the fertile earth
After soft showers; and sweet the coming on
Of grateful evening mild; then silent night,
Whith this her solemn bird; and this fair moon,
And these the gems of heaven, her starry train.
But neither breath of morn, when she ascends
With charm of earliest birds; nor rising sun
On this delightful land; nor herb, fruit, flower,
Glistering with dew; nor fragrance after showers;
Nor grateful evening mild; nor silent night,
With this her solemn bird; nor walk by moon,
Or glittering star-light, without thee is sweet.

The Poet's Song.

'The rain had fallen ; the Poet arose, .
And passed by the town, and out of the street ;
A light wind blew from the gates of the sun,
And waves of shadow went over the wheat.
And he sat him down in a lonely place,
And, chanted à melody loud and sweet,
That made the wild swan pause in her cloud,
And the lark drop down at his feet.

The swallow stopt as he hunted the bee,
The snake slipt under a spray,
The wild hawk stood with the down on his beak,

Sonnet.

Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?

Thou art more lovely and more temperate:

Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,

And summer's lease hath all too short a date:

Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,

And often is his gold complexion dimmed;

And every fair from fair sometime declines,

By chance, or nature's changing course, untrimmed.

But thy eternal summer shall not fade,

Nor lose possession of that fair thou owest;

Nor shall Death brag thou wanderest in his shade,

When in eternal lines to time thou growest:

So long as men can breathe, or eyes can see,

So long lives this, and this gives life to thee.

Milton.

Milton! thou shouldst be living at this hour;
England hath need of thee; she is a fen
Of stagnant waters; altar, sword, and pen,
Fireside, the heroic wealth of hall and: bower,
Have forfeited their ancient English dower
Of inward happiness. "We are selfish men:
Oh raise us up, return to us again,
And give us manners, virtue, freedom, power.
Thy soul was like a star, and dwelt apart;
Thou hadst a voice whose sound was like the sea;
Pure as the naked heavens, majestic, free.
So didst thou travel on life's common way
In cheerful godliness; and yet thy heart
The lowliest duties on herself did lay.
: WORDSWORTH.

On parent knees, ἃ naked new-born child,
Weeping thou satst, while all around thee smiled:
So live, that sinking to thy life's last sleep,
Calm thou mayst smile, while all around thee weep.

A Lover's Liberty.

Away with those self-loving lads,"
Whom Cupid's arrow never glads!
Away poor souls that sigh and weep
In love of those that lie asleep!
For Cupid is ἃ merry god, |
And forceth none to kiss the rod.
My songs they be of Cynthia's praise,
I wear her rings on holidays,
In every tree I write her name,
And every day I read the same.
Where Honour Cupid's rival is,
There miracles are seen of his.

If Cynthia crave her ring of me,

I blot her name out of the tree;

If doubt do darken things held dear,

Then well-fare nothing once a year.
For many run, but one must win:
Fools only hedge the cuckoo in.

The Recall.
Come again, come again!
Sunshine cometh after rain.
As a lamp fed newly burneth,
Pleasure, who doth fly, returneth,
Scattering every cloud of pain.
As the year, which dies in showers,
Riseth in ἃ world of flowers,
Called by many a vernal strain,
Come thou, for whom tears were falling,
And a thousand tongues are calling;
Come again, oh come again!
Like the sunshine after rain.

Anacreontic.

Underneath this myrtle shade,

On flowery beds supinely laid,

With odorous oils my head o'erflowing,

And around it roses growing,

What should I do but drink away

The heat and troubles of the day?

In this more than kingly state

Love himself shall on me wait.

Fil to me, Love, nay, fill it up;

And mingled cast into the cup

Wit and mirth and noble fires,

Vigorous health and gay desires.
COWLEY.

To-morrow and To-morrow and To-morrow !

When I consider life, tis all a cheat ;

Yet, fooled with hope, men favour the deceit,

Trust on, and think to-morrow will repay :

To-morrow's falser than the former day,

Lies worse; and while it says, we shall be blessed
. With some new joys, cuts off what we possessed.

Strange cozenage! none would live past years again,

Yet all hope pleasure in what yet remain,

And from the dregs of life think to receive

What the first sprightly running could not give.

I'm tired with waiting for this chymic gold,

Which fools us young, and beggars us when old.

Drinking Song of Munich.

Sweet Iser, were thy sunny realm
And flowery gardens mine,

| Thy waters I would shade with elm,

To prop the tender vine;

My golden flagons I would fill
With rosy draughts from every hill;
And under every myrtle-bower
My gay companions should prolong
The laugh, the revel, and the song,

To many an idle hour.

Like rivers crimsoned with the beam
Of yonder planet bright,
Our balmy cups should ever stream
Profusion of delight.
No care should touch the mellow heart,
And sad or sober none depart;
For wine can triumph over woe,
And Love and Bacchus, brother powers,
Could build in Iser's sunny bowers
À paradise below.

Not so had those his fancy numbered,

The chiefs whose dust around him slumbered,
Their phalanx marshalled in the plain,
Whose bulwarks were not then in vain.
They fell devoted but undying;

The very gale their praise seemed sighing;
The waters murmured of their name;

The woods were peopled with their fame;
The silent pillar, lone and gray,

Claimed kindred with their sacred clay;
Their spirits wrapped the dusky mountain,
Their memory sparkled o'er the fountain;
The meanest rill, the mightiest river,

Rolled mingling with their fame for ever.

Grood. people all, with one accord,
Lament for Madam Blaize,

Who never wanted a good word—
From those who spoke her praise,

The needy seldom passed her door,
And always found her kind;

She freely lent to all the poor—
Who left ἃ pledge behind.

She strove the neighbourhood to please
With manners wondrous winning;

And never followed wicked ways—
Unless when she was sinning.

At church in &ilks and satins new,
With hoop of monstrous size,

She never slumbered in her pew—
But when she shut her eyes.

Her love was sought, I do aver,
By twenty beaux and more;

The king himself has followed her—
When she has walked before.

But now her wealth and finery fled,
Her hangers-on cut short all;

'lThe doctors found, when she was dead—
Her last disorder mortal.

Let us lament, in sorrow sore,
For Kent-street well may say,

That, had she lived à twelvemonth more—
She had not died to-day.

Even by the stern and direful god of war,
Whose sinewy neck in battle ne'er did bow,
Who conquers where he comes in every jar;
Yet hath he been my captive and my slave,
And begged for that which thou unasked shalt have.

Thus he that overruled I overswayed,
Leading him prisoner in ἃ red rose chain.
Strong-tempered steel his stronger strength obeyed,
Yet was he servile to my coy disdain.
Oh be not proud, nor brag not of thy might,
For mastering her that foiled the god of fight.

In very wantonness of heart.

"Then straight commands, that, at the warlike sound
Of trumpets loud and clarions, be upreared
His mighty standard: that. proud honour claimed
Azazel as his right, a cherub tall,
Who forthwith from the glittering staff unfurled
The imperial ensign; which, full high advanced,
Shone like ἃ meteor streaming to the wind,
With gems and golden lustre rich emblazed,
Seraphic arms and trophies; all the while
Sonorous metal blowing martial sounds;
At which the universal host up-sent
A shout, that tore hell's concave, and beyond
Frighted the reign of Chaos and old Night.
All in à moment through the gloom were seen
Ten thousand banners rise into the air
With orient colours waving: with them rose
A forest huge of spears; and thronging helms
Appeared, and serried shields in thick array
Of depth immeasurable: anon they move
In perfect phalanx to the Dorian mood
Of flutes and soft recorders; such as raised
To height of noblest temper heroes old
Arming to battle; and, instead of rage, -
Deliberate valour breathed, firm and unmoved
With dread of death to flight or foul retreat:
Nor wanting power to mitigate and 'suage
With solemn touches troubled thoughts, and chase
Anguish, and doubt, and fear, and sorrow, and pain
From mortal or immortal minds.

He and She.

What the bee is to the floweret,
When he looks for honey-dew

Through the leaves that close embower it,

That, my love, I'll be to you.

. What the bank, with verdure glowing,

Is to waves that wander near,
Whispering kisses, while they're going,
That I'll be to you, my dear.
But they say, the bee's a rover,
That he'll fly when sweets are gone;
And, when once the kiss is over,
Faithless brooks will wander on.

Nay, if flowers will lose their looks,
]f sunny banks will wear away,
"[is but right that bees and brooks
Should sip and kiss them while they may.
MOORE.

Cugad.
Cupid is ἃ wicked wight;
Yet, methinks, "tis merely stupid
Thus the old song to recite:
* What a wicked wight is Cupid '
Call him by an evil name,
Love is charmed, and thanks the caller,

Glories in his very shame,
Cocks his chin, and looks the taller.

One thing sorely puzzles me:
Tell us, Venus, if it may be,
How the daughter of the sea
Came by such a firebrand baby.

Funeral Honours.

Oh think not that with garlands crowned
Inhuman near thy grave we tread;

Or blushing roses scatter round,

To mock the paleness of the dead.

What though we drain the fragrant bowl,
In flowers adorned, and silken vest,
Oh think not, brave departed soul,
We revel to disturb thy rest.

Feigned is the pleasure that appears,
And false the triumph of our eyes,

Our draughts of joy are dashed with tears,
Our songs imperfect and in sighs.

We inly mourn: o'er flowery plains
To roam in joyous trance is thine,

And pleasures unallied to pains,
Unfading sweets, immortal wine.

The L4ght of Love.

She is not fair to outward view,
ΑΒ many maidens be;
Her loveliness I never knew
Until she smiled on me:
Oh, then I saw her eye waa bright,
A well of love, ἃ spring of light.

But now her looks are coy and cold,
To mine they ne'er reply ;

And yet I cease not to behold
The love-light in her eye:

Her very frowns are better far

Than smiles of other maidens are.

E. Great king, within this coffin I present
Thy buried fear: herein all breathless lies
The mightiest of thy greatest enemies,
Richard of Bourdeaux, by me hither brought.
B. Exton, I thank thee not; for thou hast wrought
A deed of slander with £hy fatal hand
Upon my head and all this famous land.
E. From your own mouth, my lord, I wrought this deed.
B. They love not poison that do poison need,
Nor do I thee: though I did wish him dead,
I hate the murderer, love him murdered.
The guilt of conscience take thou for thy labour,
But neither my good word nor princely favour:
With Cain go wander through the shade of night,
And never shew thy head by day nor light.
Lords, I protest my soul is full of woe
That blood should sprinkle me to make me grow.
Come mourn with me.for what I do lament,
And put on sullen black incontinent.
: I'll make a voyage to the Holy Land,
To wash this blood off from my guilty hand.
March sadly after: grace my mournings here,
In weeping after this untimely bier.

When it was in his feet, his charity was small,

Now it is in his hand, he gives no alms at all.

The Etruwrian .Naena.

Where art thou, pale and melancholy ghost? .

No funeral rites appease thy tombless clay;
Unburied, glidest thou by the dismal coast,
O exile from the day?

There where the voice of love is heard no more,
Where the dull wave moans back the eternal wail,
Dost thou recall the summer suns of yore,
Thine own melodious vale?

Thy lares stand on thy deserted floors,
And miss their last Sweet daughter's holy face:
What hand shall wreathe with flowers the threshold doors?
What child renew the race?

Thine are the nuptials of the dreary shades;
Of all thy groves what rests?—the cypress tree.
As from the air ἃ strain of music fades,
Dark silence buries thee.

Yet no, lost child of more than mortal sires,
Thy stranger bridegroom bears thee to his home,
Where the stars light the /Esar's nuptial fires
In Tina's azure dome;

From the fierce wave the god's celestial wing '
Rapt thee aloft along the yielding air;
With amaranths fresh from heaven's eternal spring
Bright Cupra braids thy hair.

Ah, in those halls for us thou wilt not mourn;
Far are the /Esar's joys from human woe;
But not the less forsaken and forlorn
Those thou hast left below.

Never, oh never more shall we behold thee,
The last spark dies upon the sacred hearth:

Time with slow flutes our leaden footsteps keep;
Sad earth, whate'er the happier heaven may gain,

Farewell, loves and friendships, ye dear tender ties;

Thou grim king of terrors, thou life's gloomy foe,
Go, frighten the coward and slave;

Go, teach them to tremble, fell tyrant, but know
No terrors hast thou to the brave.

Thou strik'st the dull peasant, he sinks in the dark,
Nor saves e'en the wreck of ἃ name;

Thou strik'st the young hero, a glorious mark;
He falls in the blaze of his fame.

In the field of proud honour, our swords in our hands,
Our king and our country to save,
While victory shines on life's last ebbing sands,
Oh, who would not rest with the brave?

A Rainy Day.
The day is cold and dark and dreary,
It rains, and the wind is never weary;
The vine still clings to the mouldering wall,

But at every gust the dead leaves fall;
And the day is dark and dreary.

My life is cold and dark and dreary,

It rains, and the wind is never weary;

My thoughts still cling to the mouldering past,

But the hopes of youth fall thick in the blast,
And my days are dark and dreary.

Be still, sad heart, and cease repining;
Behind the clouds is the sun still shining:
Thy fate is the common fate of all;
Into each life some rain must fall,

Some days must be dark and dreary.

LONGFELLOW.

To the Genius of the House.

Command the roof, great Genius, and from thence
Into this house pour down thy influence,

That through each room a golden pipe may run
Of living water by the benizon;

Fulfil the larders, and by strengthening bread

Be evermore thy bins replenished.

Next, like a bishop, consecrate my ground,

That lucky fairies here may dance their round;
And, after that, lay down some silver pence,

The master's charge and care to recompense;
Charm then the chambers; make the beds for ease,
More than for peevish pining sicknesses;

Fix the foundation fast, and let the roof

Grow old with time, but yet keep weather-proof.

Su la marina dove il Po discende
Per aver pace co' seguaci sui.

Amor, che al cor gentil ratto 8' apprende,
Prese costui della bella persona
Che mi fu tolta, e il modo ancor m' offende.

Che, come vedi, ancor non m' abbandona.

Chinai il viso, e tanto il tenni basso,
Finché 1] Poeta mi disse: Che pense?

Quanti dolci pensier, quanto disio
Men? costoro al doloroso passo!

Poi mi rivolsi a loro, e parlai io,

E cominciai: Francesca, i tuoi martiri
A lagrimar mi fanno tristo e pio.
Ma dimmi: al tempo de' dolci sospiri,
À che e come concedette amore,
Che conosceste i dubbiosi desiri?

Ed ella à me: Nessun maggior dolore,
Che ricordarsi del tempo felice
Nella miseria; e ció sa il tuo dottore.

Ma se a conoscer la prima radice
Del nostro amor tu hai cotanto affetto,

Storm 4n the Alps.

The sky is changed—and such a change! O night,
And storm, and darkness, ye are wondrous strong,
Yet lovely in your strength, as is the light
Of ἃ dark eye in woman. Far along,
From peak to peak, the rattling crags among
Leaps the live thunder: not from one lone cloud;
But every mountain now hath found a tongue,
And Jura answers, through her misty shroud,

Back to the joyous Alps, who call to her aloud.

And this is in the night:—Most glorious night,

Thou wert not sent for slumber: let me be:

Α sharer in thy fierce and far delight,

À portion of the tempest and of thee!

How the lit lake shines, a phosphoric sea,

And the big rain comes dancing to the earth!

And now again 'tis black,—and now the glee

Of the loud hills shakes with its mountain mirth,
As if they did rejoice o'er à young earthquake's birth.

Now, where the quick Rhone thus hath cleft his way,
The mightiest of the storms hath ta'en his stand:
For here, not one, but many make their play,
And fling their thunder-bolts from hand to hand,
Flashing and cast around: of all the band,
The brightest through these parted hills hath forked
His lightnings,—as if he .did understand.
That in such gaps as desolation worked,

There the hot shaft should blast whatever therein lurked.

Sky, mountains, river, winds, lake, lightnings, ye,
With night, and clouds, and thunder, and a soul
To make these felt and feeling, well may be
Things that have made me watchful; the far roll
Of your departing voices, is the knoll

Of what in me is sleepless,—if I rest.

But where of ye, O tempests, is the goal?

Are ye like those within the human breast?

Or do ye find, at length, like eagles, some high nest?

La Torre della Fame.
Quando fui desto innanzi la dimane,
Pianger senti' fra '| sonno i miei figliuoli,
Ch 'erano meco, e dimandar del pane.
Ben sei crudel, se tu già non ti duoli,
Pensando cib ch' il mio eor s' annunziava :
E se non piangi, di che pianger suoli?
Già eran desti, e l' ora s' appressava
Che il cibo ne soleva essere addotto,
E per suo sogno ciascun dubitava,
- Ed io sentii chiavar l' uscio di sotto
AII' orribile torre: ond' io guardei
Nel viso δ᾽ miei figliuoli senza far motto.
To non piangeva, si dentro impietrai :
Piangevan elli; e Anselmuccio mio
Disse: Tu guardi si! Padre, che hai?
Perb non lagrimai, πὸ rispos' io
Tutto quel giorno, n? la notte appresso,
Infin che l' altro Sol nel mondo uscio.
Come un poco di raggio si fu messo
Nel doloroso carcere, ed io scorsi
Per quattro visi il mio aspetto stesso,
Ambo le mani per dolor mi morsi;
E quei, pensando ch' io il fessi per voglia
Di manicar, di subito levorsi,

Alcides.

Alcides thus his race began:

O'er infancy he swiftly ran:

The future god at first was more than man.

Dangers and toils and Juno's hate

E'en o'er his cradle lay in wait,

And there he grappled first with fate:

In his young hand the hissing snakes he pressed;

So early was the deity confessed.

Thus by degrees he rose to Jove's imperial seat:

Thus difficulties prove a soul legitimately great.

But I forgot, when by thy side,
"That thou couldst mortal be;

lt never through my mind had passed,
"The time would e'er be o'er—,

That I on thee should look my last,
And thou shouldst smile no more.

And still upon that face I look,
And think 'twill smile again;

And still the thought I will not brook,
That I must look in vain;

But, when I speak, thou dost not say
"What thou ne'er left'st unsaid ;

And now I feel, as well I may,
Sweet Mary, thou art dead.

1f thou wouldst stay, e'en as thou art,
All cold and all serene,

I still might press thy silent heart,
And where thy smiles have been;

While e'en thy chill bleak corse I have,
"Thou seemest still mine own;

But there—I lay thee in the grave,
And now—I am alone.

I do not think, where'er thou art,
"Thou hast forgotten me;

And I perhaps may soothe this heart
In thinking still of thee :

Yet there was round thee such a dawn
Of light ne'er seen before,

As Fancy never could have drawn,

And never can restore.

When upward-springing, blythe to greet

Upon thy early, humble birth ;

Yet cheerfully thou glinted forth
Amid the storm,

Scarce reared above the parent earth
Thy tender form.

The flaunting flowers our gardens yield
High sheltering woods and wa's maun shield,
But thou beneath the random bield
O' celod or stane,
Adorns the histie stibble-field,
Unseen, alane.

Thy snawy bosom sunward spread,
Thou lifts thy unassuming head
In humble guise;
But now the share uptears thy bed,
And low thou lies.

Sweet floweret of the rural shade,
By love's simplicity betrayed,
And guileless trust,
Til she, like thee, all soiled, is laid
Low i' the dust.

Such is the fate of simple Bard,
On life's rough ocean luckless-starred :
Unskilful he to note the card '
Of prudent lore,
Till billows rage and gales blow hard,
And whelm him o'er.

Such fate to suffering worth is given,
Who long with wants and woes has striven,
By human pride or cunning driven
To misery's brink,
Til wrenched of every stay but Heaven,
He, ruined, sink.

Even thou who mournst the daisy's fate,
That fate is thine—no distant date;
Stern Ruin's plough-share drives, elate,
Full on thy bloom,
Till erushed beneath the furrow's weight,
Shall be thy doom.

The Cycle of Esoistence.

Look round our world: behold the chain of Love

Combining all below and all above.

See plastic Nature working to this end,

The single atoms each to other tend,

Attract, attracted to, the next in place

Formed and impelled its neighbour to embrace.

See matter next, with various life endued,

Press to one centre still, the general good.

See dying vegetables life sustain,

See life dissolving, vegetate again:

All forms that perish other forms supply,

(By turns we catch the vital breath, and die,)

Like bubbles on the sea of matter borne,

They rise, they break, and to that sea return.

Nothing is foreign; parts relate to whole;

One all-extending, all-preserving soul

Connects each being, greatest with the least;

Made beast in aid of man, and man of beast;

All served, all serving: nothing stands alone;

The chain holds on, and where it end& unknown.

SABRINAE COROLLA,

Siren. Tsles.

Cease, stranger, cease those piercing notes,
The craft of Siren choirs;

Hush the seductive voice, that floats
Upon the languid wires.

Music's ethereal fire was given,
Not to dissolve our clay,

But draw Promethean beams from heaven,
And purge the dross away.

Weak self! with thee the mischief lies,
Those throbs & tale disclose;
Nor age nor trial have made wise

The man of many woes.
LYRA APOSTOLICA.

The Song of Pom.

I sang of the dancing Stars,
I sang of the daedal Earth,
And of Heaven, and the Giant wars,
And Love, and Death, and Birth:
And then I changed my pipings,
Singing how down the vale of Maenalus
I pursued ἃ maiden and clasped a reed:
Gods and men, we are all deluded thus:
It breaks in our bosom and then we bleed:
All wept, as I think both ye now would,
If envy or age had not frozen your blood,
At the sorrow of my sweet pipings.
SHELLEY.

Where were ye, Nymphs?

Wlere were ye, Nymphas, when the remorselesa deep

Closed. o'er the. head. of your loved Lycidas?

For neither were ye playing on the steep,

Wlere. your old bards, the famous Druids, lie,

Nor on the shaggy top of Mona high,

Nor yet where Deva spreads her wizard stream.

Ay me! I fondly dream

Ind ye been there; for what could that have done?

Whlat could the Muse herself that Orpheus bore,

The Muse herself, for her enchanting son ὃ

Whom universal. Nature did lament,

When by the rout that made the hideous roar

lli» goury visage down the stream was sent,

Down the 4wift ILebrus to the Lesbian shore.
Alas! what boots it with incessant care

To tend. the. homely slighted shepherd's trade,

And strictly meditate the thankless Muse?

Were it not better done, as others use,

'l'o sport. with Amaryllis in the shade

Or with the tangles of Neaera's hair?

lume is the spur that the clear spirit doth raise,

That last infirmity of noble mind,

ΤῸ scorn delights and live laborious days.

But the fair guerdon when we hope to find,

And think to burst out into sudden blaze,

Comes the blind Fury with the abhorred shears,

And slits the thin-spun life. But not the praise,

Phoebus replied, and touched my trembling ears.

The Archongel.

Each on himself relied,
As only in his arm the moment lay
Of victory. Deeds of eternal fame
Were done, but infinite; for wide was spread
That war, and various; sometimes on firm ground
Α standing fight, then soaring on main wing,
Tormented all the air; all air seemed then.
Conflicting fire. Long time in even scale .
The battle hung; till Satan, who that day
Prodigious power had shown, and met in arms
No equal, ranging through the dire attack.
Of fighting seraphim confused, at length
Saw where the sword of Michael &mote, and felled
Squadrons at once; with huge two-handed sway
Brandished aloft, the horrid edge came down
Wide wasting: such destruction to withstand
He hasted, and opposed the rocky orb
Of tenfold adamant, his ample shield,
A vast circumference. Αὐ his approach,
The great archangel from his warlike toil

Surceased.
MILTON.

Pans Lamentation.

Farewell, ye straying herds, ye crystal fountains,
Ye solitary woods, and breezy mountains!
Goat-footed Pan will now no longer dwell
In the rude fastness of his sylvan cell.
What joy has he amid the forests hoar
And mountain summits? Daphnis is no more.
No more! no more! They all are lost to me:
The busy town must now my refuge be.
The chase let others follow: I resign
Whate'er of j Joy or rapture once was mine.

A Portrait.

My mistress is as fair as fine,
With milkwhite hands and golden hair;
Her eyes the radiant stars outshine,
Lighting all things far and near:
Fair as Cynthia, not 8o fickle;
Smooth as glass, though not so brittle.

My heart is like ἃ ball of snow,
Fast melting δὲ her glances bnrght;
Her ruby lips like nightworms glow,
Sparkling through the pale twilight;
Neat she is, no feather lighter;
Bright she is, no daisy *whiter.
A. D. 1600.

Hence, Avaunt.

Come not, when I am dead,
To drop thy foolish tears upon my grave,
To trample round my fallen head
And mock the unhappy dust thou wouldst not save;
There let the wind sweep and the plover cry,
But thou—go by.

Child, if it were thine error or thy crime,
I care no longer, being all unblest ;—

Wed whom thou wilt; but I am sick of time,
And I desire to rest ;

Pass on, weak heart, and leave me where I lie;

Go by, go by.

Π1 have ἃ boy,
Sent by the gods, I hope, to this intent,
Not yet seen in the court. Hunting the buck,
I found him sitüng by a fountain's side,
Of which he borrowed some to quench his thirst,
And paid the nymph again as much in tears.
A garland lay him by, made by himself,
Of many several flowers, bred in the bay,
Stuck in that mystic order, that the rareness
Delighted me: but ever when he turned
His tender eyes upon 'em, he would weep,
As if he meant to make 'em grow again.
Seeing such pretty helpless innocence
Dwell in his face, I asked him all his story.
He told me that his parents gentle died,
Leaving him to the mercy of the fields,
Which gave him roots: and of the crystal springs,
Which did not stop their courses; and the sun,
Which still, he thanked him, yielded him his light.
Then took he up his garland, and did shew
What every flower, as country people hold,
Did signify; and how all, ordered thus,
Expressed his grief; and, to my thoughts, did read
The prettiest lecture of his country art
That could be wished: so that, methought, I could

She came forth in her bridal robes arrayed,

Flowers in her bosom, and her braided hair
Sparkling with gold, and death upon her brow,

But glorious death, the token and the seal

Of love, o'ermastering love. "The soft pure air

Came floating, rich with music, from the vales;

And the glad sunshine.of that golden clime

Streamed in bright radiance round her; but she gazed
Only on him for whom 'twas bliss to die,

On him long gazed in silence, ere she spoke.

* Thou sun, thou golden sun, I go
Far from thy light to dwell:
Thou shalt not find my place below ;
Dim is that world: bright sun of Greece, farewell.

* Yet fainteth not my soul to part;

Sing me triumphant songs! my crown is won."

And leave me here behind thee,

For love or pity let me know
The place where I may find thee.

And set about with lilies,
There filling maunds with cowslips, you
May find your Amaryllis.

Or with thy youthful hours?

The queen of men, not flowers.

With roses, since 'tis fitter
For thee with richest gems to shine,
And like the stars to glitter.

Let Well alone.

Here Lysimachus lies, who, when twenty years old,
Bade adieu to the light, and was laid in the mould:
If you ask what disease overtook him 80 soon,

Ere the morning of life had approached to its noon,
Why, he died of desiring, when well, to be better,
And of following the Faculty's rules to the letter.

The coming Judgment.

The world is grown old, and her pleasures are past;
The world is grown old, and her form may not last ;
The world is grown old, and trembles for fear:

For sorrows abound, and judgment is near.

The sun in the heaven is languid and pale,

And feeble and few are the fruits of the vale;
And the hearts of the nations fail them for fear:
For the world is grown old, and judgment is near.

The king on his throne, the bride in her bower,
The children of pleasure, all feel the sad hour:

' The roses are faded, and tasteless the cheer:

For the world is grown old, and judgment is near.

The world is grown old: but should we complain,

Who have tried her, and know that her promise is vain?
Our heart is in heaven, our home is not here,

And we look for our crown when judgment is near.

HEBER.

The Fathers.

*'Lhe fathers are in dust, yet live to God :"
So says the Truth; as if the motionless clay
Still held the seeds of life beneath the sod,
Smouldering and struggling till the judgment-day.

And hence we learn with reverence to esteem
Of these frail houses, though the grave confines:
Sophist may urge his cunning tests, and deem
That they are earth ;—but they are heavenly shrines.

The Year.

In childhood, when, with eager eyes,
The season-measured year I viewed,
All, garbed in fairy guise,
Pledged constancy of good.

Spring sang of heaven; the summer flowers
Let me gaze on, and did not fade;
Even suns o'er autumn's bowers
Heard my strong wish, and stayed.

They came and went, the short-lived four;
Yet, as their varying dance they wove,
To my young heart each bore
]ts own sure claim of love.

Far different now!—the whirling year
Vainly my dizzy eyes pursue,
And its fair tints appear
All blent in one dusk hue.

Why dwell on rich autumnal lights,
Spring-time, or winter's social ring?
Long days are fireside nights,
Brown autumn is fresh spring.

Then what this world to thee, my heart?
Its gifts nor feed thee nor can bless;
Thou hast nd owner's part
In all its fleetingness.

The flame, the storm, the quaking ground,
Earth's joy, earth's terror, nought is thine;
Thou must but hear the sound
Of the still voice divine.

O princely lot! O blissful art!
E'en while by sense of change opprest,
Thus to forecast in heart
Heaven's age of fearless rest.

The Wonders of the Deep.

They that go down to the sea in ships,

And do business in great waters ;

These men see the works of the Lord,

And his wonders in the deep.

For at his word the stormy wind ariseth,

Which lifteth up the waves thereof.

They are carried up to the heaven, and down again to the
deep:

Their soul. melteth away because of their trouble.

They reel to and fro, and stagger like ἃ drunken man,

And are at their wit's end.

So when they cry unto the Lord in their trouble,

He delivereth them out of their distress.

For he maketh the storm to cease,

So that the waves thereof are still.

Then are they glad because they are at rest:

And so he bringeth them to the haven where they would be.

PSALM CVII.

Means of Grace.

Lord, I have fasted, I have prayed,
And sackceloth has my girdle been,
To purge my soul I have essayed
With hunger blank and vigil keen.
O God of mercy! why am I .
Still haunted by the self I fly?

Sackcleth is a girdle good,
O bind it round thee still ;
Fasting, it is angels! food,
And Jesus loved the night-air chill;
Yet think not prayer and fast were given
To make one step 'twixt earth and heaven.

Thou callest its children ἃ happy band:

Mother, oh where is that radiant shore;

Shall we not seek it, and weep no more?

Is it where the flower of the orange blows,

And the fire-flies dance through the myrtle-boughs ?—
Not there, not there, my child.

Is it where the feathery palm-trees rise,

And the date grows ripe under sunny skies;

Or midst the green islands of glittering seas, .

Where fragrant forests perfume the breeze,

And strange bright birds on their starry wings

Bear the rich hues of all glorious things ?—
Not there, not there, my child.

Is it far away in some region old,
Where the river wanders o'er sands of gold,
Where the burning rays of the ruby shine,
And the diamond lights up the secret mine,
And the pearl gleams forth from the coral strand ;
Is it there, sweet mother, that better land ?—

Not there, not there, my child.

Eye hath not seen it, my gentle boy;
Ear hath not heard its deep songs of joy;
Dreams cannot picture a world so fair,
Sorrow and death may not enter there;
Time doth not breathe on its fadeless bloom;
For beyond the clouds and beyond the tomb,

It is there, it is there, my child.

As my eternal purpose hath decreed:

Yet not of will in him, but grace in me

Freely vouchsafed; once more I will renew

His lapsed powers, though forfeit, and enthralled
By sin to foul exorbitant desires ;

On even ground against his mortal foe;

His fallen condition is, and to me owe

Sayings of the Wise.

Better is the poor that walketh in his integrity,
Than he that is perverse in his lips, and is a fool.
Also that the soul be without knowledge, it is not good;
And he that hasteth with his feet sinneth.
The foolishness of man perverteth his way:
And his heart fretteth against the Lord.
Wealth maketh many friends;
But the poor is separated from his neighbour.
A false witness shall not be unpunished,
And he that speaketh lies shall not escape.
Many will entreat the favour of the prince:
And every man is a friend to him that giveth gifts.
Delight is not seemly for a fool;
Much less for a servant to have rule over princes.
The discretion of ἃ man deferreth his anger,
And it is his glory to pass over a transgression.
The king's wrath is as the roaring of a lion;
But his favour is as dew upon the grass.
PROVERBS, CH. XIX.

T'wofold Hope.

Reflected on the lake, I love
To see the stars of evening glow,
So tranquil in the heaven above,
So restless in the wave below.

Thus heavenly hope is all serene;
But earthly hope, how bright soe'er,
Still flutters o'er this changing scene,
As false, as fleeting, as 'tis fair.
HEBER.

Sweet are the Uses of Adversity.

I have been honored and obeyed,
I have met scorn and shght ;

And my heart loves earth's sober shade
More than her laughing light.

For what is rule but ἃ sad weight
Of duty, and a snare?

What meanness, but with happier fale |
The Saviour's cross to share?

This my hid choice, though not from heaven,
Moves on the heavenward line;
Cleanse it, good Lord, from sinful leaven,
And make it simply thine.
LYRA APOSTOLICA.

A Present Deity.

O Lord, thou hast searched me out, and known me:
Thou knowest my down-sittüng and mine up-rising ;
Thou understandest my thoughts long before.

Thou art about my path and about my bed,

And spiest out all my ways.

For lo there is not ἃ word in my tongue,

But thou, O Lord, knowest it altogether.

Thou hast fashioned me behind and before,

And laid thine hand upon me.

Such knowledge is too wonderful and excellent for me:
I cannot attain unto it.

Whither shall I go then from thy Spint,
Or whither shall I go from thy presence?
If I climb up into heaven, thou art there:
If I go down to hell, thou art there also.

All Things are Vanity.

When mirth is full and free,
Some sudden gloom will be;
When haughty power mounts high,
The watcher's axe is nigh.
All growth has bound; when greatest found,
It hastes to die.

When the rich town, that long
Has lain its huts among,
Rears jfs new structures vast,
And vaunts,—it shall not last.
Bright tints that shine are but the sign
Of summer past.

When, too, thine eye surveys
With fond adoring gaze
And yearning heart thy friend,
Love to its grave doth tend.
All gifts below, save faith, but grow
Towards an end.

If thou dost find
A house built to thy mind
Without thy cost,

The Burden of Babylon.

He who smote the people in wrath with ἃ continual stroke,

He that ruled the nations in anger,

Is persecuted, and none hindereth.

The whole earth is at rest and is quiet;

They break forth into singing.

Yea, the fir-trees rejoice at thee,

And the cedars of Lebanon, saying,

Since thou art laid down, no feller is come up against us.

Hell from beneath is moved for thee,

To meet thee at thy coming:

It stirreth up the dead for thee,

Even all the chief ones of the earth ;

It hath raised up from their thrones all the kings of the
nations.

All they shall speak and say unto thee,

Art thou algo become as weak as we?

Art thou become like unto us?

Thy pomp is brought down to the grave

And the noise of thy viols:

The worm is spread under thee,

And the worms cover thee.

How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the
morning,

How art thou cut down to the ground,

That didst weaken the nations!

For thou hast said in thine heart,

I will ascend into heaven,

I will exalt my throne above the stars of God.

Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell,

To the sides of the pit.

They that see thee shall narrowly look on thee,

And consider thee, saying,
Is this the man that made the earth to tremble,
That did shake kingdoms;
That made the world as ἃ wilderness,
And destroyed the cities thereof;
That opened not the house of his prisoners?
IBAIAH, CH. XIV.

The Ewwdence of Thangs mot seen.
We saw 'Thee not, when Thou didst tread,
O Saviour, this our sinful earth; .

Nor heard thy voice restore the dead,
And waken them to second birth;
Yet we believe that 'Thou didst come,
And quit for us thy glorious home.

We were not with the faithful few,
Who stood thy bitter cross around;
Nor heard thy prayer for those who slew,
Nor felt that earthquake rock the ground.
We saw no spear-wound pierce thy side,
But we believe that Thou hast died.

No angel'ss message met our ear,

On that first glorious Easter Day;
*'lhe Lord is risen. He is not here;
* Come, see the place where Jesus lay."
But we believe that Thou didst quell
The banded powers of death and hell.

We saw 'Thee not return on high;

And now, our longing sight to bless,

No ray of glory from the sky

Shines down upon our wilderness;

But we believe that Thou art there,

And seek 'Thee, Lord, in praise and prayer.

Christian. Warfare.

Soldier, go—but not to claim
Mouldering spoils of earth-born treasure,
Not to build ἃ vaunting name,
Not to dwell in tents of pleasure;
Dream not that the way is smooth,
Hope not that the thorns are roses;
Turn no. wistful eye of youth
Where the sunny beam reposes:
Thou hast sterner work to do,
Hosts to cut thy passage throngh ;
Close behind thee gulfs are burning:
Forward !—there is no returning.

Soldier, rest—but not for thee
Spreads the world her downy pillow;
On the rock thy couch must be,
While around thee chafes the billow;
Thine must be a watchful sleep,
Wearier than another's waking ;
Such a charge as thou dost keep
Brooks no moment of forsaking.
Sleep, as on the battle-field,
Girded, grasping sword and shield:
Those thou canst not name or number
Steal upon thy broken slumber.

Soldier, rise—the war is done:
Lo, the hosts of hell are flying;
"Twas thy Lord the battle won;
Jesus vanquished them by dying.

Behold, the day of the Lord cometh,

Cruel both with wrath and fierce anger,

To lay the land desolate ;

And he shall destroy the scorners thereof out of it.

The Praise of God.

Ye mists and exhalations, that now rise

From hill or &teaming lake, dusky or grey

Till the sun paint your fleecy skirts with gold,

In honour to the world's great Author rise;

Whether to deck with clouds the uncoloured sky,

Or wet the thirsty earth with falling showers,

Rising or falling, still advance his praise.

His praise, ye winds, that from four quarters blow,

Breathe soft or loud; and wave your tops, ye pines,

With every plant, in sign of worship wave.

Fountains, and ye that warble, as ye flow,

Melodious murmurs, warbling tune his praise.

Join voices, all ye living souls; ye birds,

That singing up to heaven-gate ascend,

Bear on your wings and in your notes his praise.

Ye that in waters glide, and ye that walk

The earth, and stately tread, or lowly creep;

Witness if I be silent, morn or even,

To hill or valley, fountain or fresh shade,

Made vocal by my song, and taught his praise.

The Grace of God.

The misty clouds that fall sometime
And overcast the skies

When Phoebus shews his face,

So are sad fancies put to flight
When God doth guide by grace.

Holy Saviour, heavenly King,
Homage to thy throne we bring.

In the wonders all around
Ever is thy Spirit found,

And of each good thing we see
All the good is born of Thee.

Thine the beauteous skill that lurks
Every where in Nature's works;
Thine is Art with all its worth,
Thine each masterpiece on earth.

Yea, and foremost in the van
Springs from Thee the mind of man:
On its light, for this 1s thine,

Shed abroad the love divine.

Lo, our God, thy children here

From all realms are gathered near,
Wisely gathered, gathering still,

For peace on earth, towards men goodwill.

May we with fraternal mind
Bless our brothers of mankind:
May we, through redeeming love,
Be the blest of God above.

As fading hues of even;
And love, and hope, and beauty's bloom,
Are blossoms gathered for the tomb;

The Publishers have been induced by the scarcity a&nd increasing value of this
admired Series of the Poets, to prepare a New Edition, very carefully corrected, and
improved by such additions as recent literary research has placed within their reach.

The general principle of Editing which has been adopted is to give the entire Poems
ef each author in strict conformity with the edition which received his final revision, to prefix a
Memoir, and to add such notes as may be necessary to elucidate the sense of obsolete words or
ezplain obscure allusions. — Each author will be placed in the hands of 8 competent editor
specially acquainted with the literature and bibliography of the period.

Externally this new edition will resemble the former, but with some improvements.
It will be elegantly printed by Whittingham, on toned paper manufactured expressl
for it; and a highly-finished portrait of each author will be given. The Volumes wi
be issued at short intervals.

The 4ldine Edition of the British Poets has hitherto been the favourite Series with
the admirers of choice books, and every effort will be made to increase its claims as &
comprehensive and faithful mirror of the poetic genius of the nation.

ΤῊΙΒ series is intended to supply for the use of Schools and Students cheap and

small German editions now current in this country, and more convenient in form.

The texts of the ** Bibliotheca Classica" and ** Grammar- School Classics," s0 far as
they have been published, will be adopted. "These editions have taken their place
amongst scholars as valuable contributions to the Classical Literature of this country,
and are admitted to be good examples of the judicious and practical nature of English
scholarship ; and as the editors have formed their texts from & careful examination of
the best editions extant, it is believed that no texts better for general use can be found.

The volumes will be well printed at the Cambridge University Press, in a 16mo.

* [t is not our custom to criticize critiques, or to do more than register the titles of Periodi-

and fearless in tone, its spirit is so wisely progressive, and its articles seem to be marked by
such manifest ability, that we willingly give sentence in its favour. The volame for the Year
consists of fifty-one essays and reviews:—on Preaching, Edncation, Family life, Workhouses
and Womens? Work, Crime, and the State of the Streets, with interesting Biographical Notices.
The work is under a new direction, and is in every way deserving of encouragement." —
