Tet, y-hy should I this sadness feel. Os older times distracting token— Since mcm’rys balm can never heal The wounded heart, or spirit broken! Should love her midnight vigils keep O'er settle illusive ruin’d hope, The frantic heart must inly we« p, Or break, to give its madness scope.

As wa have made mention of Kmg Mid- ' colm, I shall lake upon roe to show, in a few words, with what temper and modem tion he was gifted. Having learned from an informer that one of his principal no fcle. had conspired with the cnemv for his death, he ordered the accuser to keen si knee, and waited quietly till the coining t.t the traitor, who happened at the lime to be absent. As soon as he appeared at coun, attended by a numerous retinue, to execute bis treasonable purpose, the kina issued orders to his huntsmen to be ream With their dogs before dawn, and, as sooit Its the morning broke, ho culled all his no Dies and retainders round him for the chase. When they reached a certain with phou, surrounded by u very thick wood like a girdle, he kept the treacherous lord by his siue, and, while all the rest were Jhirsiiing Ujc same, remained with hit .*• w** . T ! ,eo « n ° other person was sight, the K ng stopped short, ami looking back upon the traitor, who tva>.' behind him, sui.l, «Io! here am I mm and thou with me :we are alone-we a equally armed and equally mounted; ther ■ is nobody that can see or hear u«,or bring assistance to either of us ; If, therefor? 4he courage be in thee, if thou be stout enough and bold enougli, perform that which which Uiou hast proposed to do, »s --ecute for mv enemies and Uiy confede rates that which thou host promised II it be thy mind to slay roe, when const thou do it more fairly—when more privately— when more manfully 1 Hast thou prepared poison? heave tliaflo women.

No man doubts that this is rather the of iice of an assassin than a soldier. Com on, then ! body to body—act the part of a Tnau and a warrior, so that thy treason ms) at least be without baseness, although it cannot be without perfidy." When the knight heard these words, being struck as by a thunderbolt, Jie hastily dismounted fioru Ids horse, and throwing aside his wea pons, fell at the royal feet, with tears amt trembling. “ Fear nothing,” said the king, "for no evil will 1 do unto thee;” and thereupon, having required of him only a promise of future feality, to be confirmed d> oath, and proper pledge, for the same, he returned with him in good time, to their companions, and related to no man what had been said or done betwixt them.
