POETRY. WOMAN'S HEART. BY n AKY ANNE BBOWNB. “Alas! that man should ever win, So sweet a shrine to shame and sin, r As woman’s heart.”—L. E. L. Say, what is woman’s heart:’ A tiling Where all the deepest feelings spring, / harp whose tender chords reply Unto the touch of harmony; A world whose fairy scenes are fraught With all the color’d dreams of thought; A bark that still will blindly move Upon the treacherous seas of love. What is its love? A careless stream, A changeless star an endless dream, A smiling flower that will not die. “A beauty and a mystery;" Its storms as light as April showers, Its joys as bright as April flowers, Its hopes as sweet as summer air And dark as winter its despair. What are its hopes? Rainbow’s that A radiant light where'er they go, Smiling when Heaven is overcast, Yet melting into storms at last; Bright cheats that come with siren words, Beguiling it, like summer's birds, That stay while nature round them blooms But flee away when winter comes. What is its hate? A passing frown, A single weethunid blossoms sown, That cannot flourish there for long; A harsh rote in an angel’s song; A summer cloud, that all the w hile Js lighted by a sunbeam’s smile; A passion that scarce hath a part Amidst the gems of woman's heart. And what is its despair? A deep Fever, that leaves no tears to weep; A wo that works with silent power, As canker-worms destroy a flower; A viper that shows not its wakos, Until the heart it preys on break*; A mist that robs a star of light, And wiaps it up in darkest night Then what is Woman’s Heart? A thing Where all the deepest feelings spring; A harp whose tender chords reply Unto the touch of harmony; A world whose fury scenes are fraught With all tile colored dreams of thought, A bark that still will blindlv move Upon the treacherous sons of love. MOTHER OK WASHINGTON. £Thc following beautiful lines were written by Mrs. r- ioourmy, a few years since, while on a visit to Fredericksburg ] MOTHER of him whose godlike fame The Good throughout the world rUverc, Ah! why without a stone or anme, Thus sleep’st thou unregarded here? Fair pensile branches o’er thee wave, And Nature decks the ciioseß dell, Yet, surely o’er thy hallowed grave A Nation’s mournful sighs should swell— Rome, with a burst of filial pride, The rnothei of her Gracchi view’d; And why should we restrain the tide OF reverential gratitude? She to sublime Yolumnia paid Her tribute of enraptur’d tears, When the dread Chief that voice obey’d Which sternly curb'd his infant years. Thou in the day’s of Sparta’s might. liadst high on her illustrious roll Been rank’d an id those nations bright, Who nobly nursed the great of soul— For, disciplin’d in Wisdom’s school, The lofty p 1 pi! owned thy sway, And well might he be skill’d to rule, So early nurtur'd to obey. No enervating arts refin’d, To slumber lull’d his heaven-born might; No weak indulgence wrap’d thy mind, To cloud a hero’s path of light. Sav when upon thy sh elding breast, The Saviour of his Country hung, When his soft lip to thine was prest, Wooing the accents from thy tongue— Baw’st thou prescient o'er his brow Tiie shadowy wreaths of laurel start? Or, when his infant hands were taught By-thee in simple prayer to rise— Say were thy own devotions fraught With heightened incense for the skies? Well may that realm, confiding rest, Heroes and mighty chiefs to see, Who finds its infant offspring blest, With monitors and guides like thee. fceme future age. than ours more just, With his shall blend thy honor’d name, And rear exulting o’er thy dust The monument of deathless fame Shall thither bid young mothers wend To bless thy spirit as they rove, And learn, while o’er thy tomb they bend, For Heaven to train the babes they love. FB'M THE RURAL REPOSITORY Lines, written on a bankhill , sent to u distressed fomily. Go— lean do without thee And «e*-k the broken heart Spread joy and mirth about thee, 11 ith thy all-soothing art. Go—seek the lonely bosom And plant now pleasuies there, And cause new hopes to blossom, Mid sorrow and despair. Henry. I GEORGE W.
