With strong and graceful gesture, lui*h imposed
The irrevocable vow—and. with meek prayer,

Pass on in hope ! For y may build as firm
Four silent altar in each ot hearts,
And catch the sunshine t ‘• -uds of tintt,
As cheerily as though the ; ...p of speech
Did herald forth the deed. And when ye dwell

Hath power !o suver more, y. n not mourn

For there the eternal dialect of love
Is the free breath of every nappy soul!

THE POETS MIST.iESS TO TER LOVS&
BT MISS PAUDOE,
Breathe me a lay of old romance,
A festive or a battle strain;
Tell me of knightly steed or lance,
But never sing of love again,
For while I hang upon thy lute,
And feel it to my bosom cling,
I wish thy lip of pa ssion mute- -
I’d have thee h < l 100 much to ai;)
I hearken till a spell appears,
Enwreathed about my sou! the whi!
And I look up to hec* in t ars,
hen I should greet n with a sniii^
Then strike a livelu r chord f r me,
Os marshalled hosts and tented :1a::.-
Os pomp, and pride and pa_- -mtry —
But never sing of love again!
Proud .n<, thy lute ha- many string?’
. hy wilt thou always w;!:< noi e,
And foster thine imaginin’ - 4 .
As since I’ve lov’d th- •, tnou st domf
There are a thousand beauteous tl* vers,
The g nth breath of spring has blown:
Wreath them 1 pray, and make them ours.^
Nor ict tbt rose be twim and alone.
If I could touch the lute, like thee,
I’d ts I lii tab’s of fairy land;
And forms of light and witchery,
Should wake to lif beneath my band—
Cut didst thou as a gentle lay,
And bi<lst me swe< p love's trembling slib r 2
I’d put the hit** in haste away.
Fo 1 I should feel t‘ i *uie': to sing !
The Sabbath Tins blessed dav possesses a
hallowing influence, of which all who have, in
any measure, felt, must be deeply conscious.
The mind, abstracted from the ordinary cares
ofa life ot vicissitude and toil, is pervaded by a
solemn sense of the stupendous transac*
tions which this day is so eminently fitted to
commemorate. The body, too, participating
j in the relief of the mind, is strengthened atul
invigorated by its relaxation from active exer
tion, and, both combined, enjoy a season at
once pleasant ane profitable. The turmoils
and anxieties of a busy world, are hushed in
sweet composure and placid loveliness. The
asperiti sos nature are softened down, and pas
sion and strife give place to reason and peace.
The halcyon hours, pictured to a lively imagin
ation come to shed their chastening ind sane
titying influence upon the frigid heart of petul
ance and discontent. F.very assooiationofreal
friendship and disinterested love that has cros
sed th# threshold of tender recollections, is pre
sent to the view, and, awakening new delights
and unfolding brighter prospects, a halo of hap
piness without alloy beams forth to add addi
tional splendor to a scene already replete with
beauty. A solemn silence reigns without while
peace and comfort prevail within. Tho sor
rows and perplexities oflife are to a great ex
tent subdued and forgotten, while prospective
good and anticipated joy dispel all gloomy fore
bodings and all melancholy leelings. Kmc -=•
ging tiom a senseless inactivity and a sinful
stupor, the mind rises buoyantly above the nar
row confines of this sublunary sphere, and ran
ges the expansive fields ol'ligbt and blessedness
above. In view Tall these momentous con
siderations, who can regard the Sabbath as a
I tedious or unfriendly day 1 Who will not long
j for its return, anu pray that its influence mar
jbe constantly felt, and its consecrated hours
j devout’ v devouted to tho purpose for which thev
| have so graciously been given ! All must an
j swer, Noxr.!
I There was a noble frankness, combined with
a consciousness of eminent attainments, that
could confess an < rror ..ithout seeking to ex
plain it away, or without being so humbled bv
it as to try to hide it by quibbling, shown by T>i|
Johnson in his answer to a lady who asked him
from what cause he. had defined the word “pas
tern” to be the knee of a horse 1 The doctor
replied, “It was owing to ignorance, madam
core ignorance.”
