THOSE lips tu mine are preflVd in vain, In v in. ftlfe fair, thole arms enfold me; Thy lavish'd charms no more retain The powerful spells they had to hold me. Though red the rose that on thy lip. With dewy odours bathed, is (slowing ; I will no’ drink where all may Up, Whence fwects to all alike are flowing. The form that yields to all it* fwerts, To me can ne'er be worth rareffmg, And if thy heart for numbers heats. Oh tell me, is it wortii pofle fling f Then fare thee welt,and let us part, Since my fliort drramof love is over; I have hut loft a thing of art, While thou haft loft a faithful lover. Which will the grealfft loss sustain I know not, but I feel full dearly That thou wilt never find A heart to love thee so fiucerely. Once more farewell, so let us part ; For me, I ever must regret thee j For time can never teach my heart, I ho’ thou art faithlcfs, to forget thee. Ah no ! 1 do but boast in vain That love is from my bosom tnnifhed; For while I (peak I feel thy chain, Ami all my doubts of thee have vanifli ed. Still smile, and 1 will think that now On me alone those lips arc smiling Flatter, nor will 1 think that thou My simple heart art still beguiling. I.et but that rosy lip once more Yield tomy lip its fragrant freafure, And I'll forget that from ihat store, Another draws large draughts of pita furc. Oh pour on me those floods of light Tost from thy radiant eye are stream ing ■ l will not dream that eyefo bright For any eye but mine is beaming. And ah ! if felt and pamlffs fight Thy Viofom move with gentle motion. A the light fuminerair bids rife In lighted waves the peaceful ocean. My bosom then (hall fondly fwel', Nor will I in thy sighs difeover That alt thy fofteft wishes dwell With f.nne more highly-favoured lover. Then fay no hand but mine fliall press That hand, or touch the charms I sigh for; 4 That 1 alone MUgjpr poflefs The love gladly die for. And oh how hapy wilt thou be, If thou, while thus with vows deceiving. Haft half the hlifs that fl >w. to me, While hearingthie, &, while believing. ■ Mil ‘TI rm. - theoeßiusofshakespeare and OF MILTON, CONTRASTED By the late Thomas Dcrmody. The Italian writers compare the peem of Ariollo to a gar den of melons; where those that are good are excellent, and those that are bad, are worth nothing. On the other hand TaflTo is afiimilated to a bed of cucumbers ; where all are ripe & found, hut deflitute of that delicious rHifii whichpleales the molt refined tafle. Shakespeare (to life this cl lufion; is a wild garden where peaches, plumbs, and apples are found; fotne crude, fome lour, forme rotten, bin I'otne in comparable. lie is a vineyard of plenty, where many of the fined branches are turned for want of the pruning knife. Shakespeare, like the world is full of good and evil but his word fate is so tempting, that we have no power to refrain from trying it- But thechaile the lublitne Milton is, like his own Eden. “A happy rural seat of various view And his work is that fertile ground, out of which . he caus’d to grow All tr. es of noble kind ; for sight, smell, taste ; And all amid them stood the tret t>J file, High, eminent, blooming, ambro sial trull, Os vegetable gold.” Islamic is so arranged by him as to receive an additional left re from ait ; and the exu berance of the earth appears more than the labor of the cul tivator. Shakespeare, when he soars is borne by a Muse of five be. yorid human fight ; but Milton in his grandefl moments, re tains the light of reason. His ecftacies are the ecftacies of a philosopher ; Shakespeare's are the flights of an irivilihle being. Notwnhttanding this, their spirits are fomewhatcongenial; for allowing the variation of the epic from the dramatic, they move us by the fame golden springs of pathos. In the art ot exciting terror. I am not Jure but that Shakespeare is superior ; for infiance—the dream of Eve is painted rather tamely though in just and beautiful colours; while Cla rence’s vilion difplavs the in mod recedes of horror, p ---prehenfion, pity, judgement, and admirable fanev. The characters of Satan and Mac beth are both indeed,extreme ly well managed, and in my opinion, extremely alike : they have the fame courage, the fame undaunted ambition, un curbed freedom of will and 1, irited fortitude in the hour of deftruttion. They both are conscious of their ingratitude andvvickednefs, both stubborn and relentless, and even in the midfi. of their success, they leem to fed a boding of the confer] uences. The address of the arert-infi del to the fun, is a noble de fection of the remorfc attend ant on conscience : it shews that even Lucifer himfelf could not but find iis fling. Mac beth iri almofl every situation, confedes his guilt, yet plunges into dead* of tenfold horror. Lady Macbeth might be also introduced here, but female tenderness denies her savage temper. The mod apparent touch that diltinguifhes Mac beth from Nairn, is in his cow ardice <!Sc mean prevarication ; he exclaims. “ Thou can’ll not fay I did it,” to Banquo’s gliolt, becaule he only commanded his alTallina tion ; Milton s hero gloried in i his undoing ; and, i “ — — fierce hi gesfped arm*. j C ufli and on hi> founding lliield the din of war, ! Hurling defiance to the vault of heaven.” ! Shakelpeare is like a cataratt : ! at one time ruffling through 1 rocks and caverns, foaming J and terrifying; then linking in to a fluggifb calm, with no” ; thing but the bubbles of his for | mcr sublimity. Milton is a j full, not overflowing river; Jc ‘ like the river to the lea, haften i ing towards his filullrious de i iign, never pausing, and fel i dom dangerous to the paffeir j gers. The very foibles of one i are delulive and charming ; j but the other, if ever he should j delccnd, is Hat, and liable to j inferiority from the nature of his performance. The wild Icenery of Shakespeare is the unconnected magic of Merlin, variously diverting ; that of Milton is like Plato's Ely burn ; ‘enchanting, yet built on the basts of an opinion which bears the a:r of probability. In a word, the former was a man of many faults and many vn tues ; the latter neatly a pat tern of perfection—perfection attained by a ttudy and dint of learning. Shakespeare was the child of fancy : Milton the child ot judgement. Milton was the poet and etitic too ; Shakespeare the poet only ; hut such a one as. Wc ne’er fliall look upon hit like ag^in.” . w‘m smsmimmanimm Sheriff ’s Sales, On the First Tuesday in June next, WILL BE SOLD, At the court-house in the city oy Savannah, between the hours of 10 and 3 o'clock, ALL those buildings and improvements, on the N.
