As dew 1 , that glitters on tlie flower,
At rising morn, or evening hour,
Imparts a fairer, brighter dye.
When Love’s bright halo strikes the heart,
And fondest dreams of bliss impart
Their influence o’er the mind,
Tiiy ray that beams so mildly there,'
Dispels the gloomy shade ot care,
And lights the soul with joys refined.
When genial breath of balmy Spring
Awakes the soul’s imagining
In dreams of smiling bowers;
'Tis tbee that stills tlie bosbm’a sigh,
And points to Beauty’s rapturqus eye,
The path of tile to strew with flowers.
Thine are the visions, fair and bright,
Whose hallowed soul inspiring light,
Foretells the bliss of heaven ;
That brilliant throne, w here angels meet
To cimunt in strains divinely sweet,

THE FIRST BALL.
AY, wreath the tresses o’er thy brow,
The pearl* arnitl thy liuir, _
Ami gaze until tlmt young cheek grow
A thousand times more fair.
With sunny smiles, anil blushes bright,
The Parthian arrows, which tonight
Must the young Beauty wear,
, Clasp the last ruby of her zone—'
And now go forth, thou lovely one.
And. glad as fair, it is thy^ first—
All, that the charm bath made—
Thou hast not seen the .bubble hurst,
Nor watch’d the flower fade;
And little dream’st an hour will ho,
When festal scene shall seem to thee
A silence aq,l a shade;
-Thou know’st not pleasure has tlie wing,
As well as song of bird in Spring.
Oh, Spring is beautiful as brief!
The check forgets its rose,
The color withers from the leaf,
And worse still, I know those
Who wear their outward breath and bloom,
Like blossoms placed upon tlie tomb,
To hide the darkest woes;
For soon as these fair lines denart,
They fade yet faster from the heart.
But thou ns yet canst only see
The festal hall, where Night
Reigns, throned like a divinity,
With incense and with light.
Like music and like echo meet
The harp-notes and the silvery feet;
And thousand flowers unite
In gather’d beauty to declare
Their soul’s sweet secrets to the air.
What dost thou dream of, lovely one T
Of pleasure 1 Look around,
• Behind the veil-mid mask,’ for none
Unveiled, unmask'd arc found.
Mark yon fair girl: the fears have rush'd
To her blue eyes—the cheek has blush'd,
A# with a crimson wound:
And why ? your head is hound wUti pearls,
While hers hath but its own bright curls!
Orpass yon inch poor triumph by
The pride is on your brow,
And laughing lip and flashing eye
Another hope avow.
What dost thou dream of, lovely one 7
Of hearts that but a look hath won I
I.noks slmft-iike from a how,
Tlmt slay by chance 1 Now, out on tbecl
To think of such cold vanity.
Or do you dream a dearer dream,
And can such dream be love 7
No star hath such a fatal beam
In yon wide heaven above. -•,
a Go, waste your first yonr sweetest yeans 1 •»
Go, wtuh away your rose with tcafs;
Go, like it wounded dove:
The poison’d arrow in your side
You cannot.bear, you yet must hide!
Mark her who by yon column lone
Leans with dark absent eye;
A blush U|k>ii her check is thrown—
. 'Tis from the red wreath nigh.—
She’s musing over some sweet word,
*-* Long whisper’d but still freshly heard,
Some honey flattery;
Careless, perchance, and lightly spoken,
But which the heart too oft hath broken.
Why should I speak these words of doom
To one of fairy glee 7
Atas! whoever look’d on bloom,
Nor thought how it would he 7
