This officer entered the Navy, in Dec. 1805, as Fst.-cl. Vol., on board the Caesar 80, Capt. Thos. Geo. Shortland, to which ship, bearing the successive flags of Rear-Admirals Sir Rich. John Strachan, Hon. Robt. Stopford, and Wm. Albany Otway, he continued attached as Midshipman and Master’s Mate until June, 1811. He was in consequence present, during the year 1809, at the destruction of three French frigates under the batteries of Sable d’Olonne, in the attack also on the enemy’s shipping in Aix Roads, and in the operations against Walcheren, where he served in an armed transport at the bombardment of Flushing, and commanded a gun-boat until its final evacuation by the British. On leaving the Caesar, Mr. Lloyd successively joined the Venerable and Tigre 74’s, Capts. Sir Home Popham and John Halliday; by the latter of whom, during Lord Wellington’s occupation of the lines of Torres Vedras, he was there intrusted with the command of a signal station for five months. The ship into which he was next received was the Pembroke 74, Capt. Jas. Brisbane, under whom, it appears, he beheld the fall of Genoa in April, 1814. In the ensuing summer he went on a timber-getting voyage to South America, as Second-Master of the Serafis store-ship, Master-Commander Wm. Lloyd; and on his return to England, in Aug. 1815, he found that he had been awarded a commission dated 6 Feb. in that year. From Dec. 1822 until the close of 1833, and from 13 May, 1841, until the summer of 1844, Lieut. Lloyd held appointments in the Coast Guard. He is now on half-pay.

# A Poem by Letitia Elizabeth Landon (L. E. L.) in Landscape Illustrations Of Moore’s Irish Melodies, 1835/The Golden Grave

* THE WICKLOW GOLD MINES
* Sketch by Pennefather Esq.Engraved by S. Rawle
The song itself, which refers to the golden age of Ireland, cannot, at this era of refinement, be rendered by any one more fair or more accomplished than her to whom we are indebted for the following version;—but we name her not,—
Bound by the magic in the spell
Of three sweet letters, L. E. L.
The Golden Grave.
He sleeps within his lonely grave
 Upon the lonely hill,
There sweeps the wind—there swells the wave—  All other sounds are still.
And strange and mournfully sound they;
 Each seems a funeral cry,
O'er life that long has past away,
 O'er ages long gone by.
One winged minstrel's left to sing
 O'er him who lies beneath—
The humming bee, that seeks in spring
 Its honey from the heath.
It is the sole familiar sound
 That ever rises there;
For silent is the haunted ground,
 And silent is the air.
There never comes the merry bird—
 There never bounds the deer;
But during night strange sounds are heard,
 The day may never hear:
For there the shrouded Banshee stands,
 Scarce seen amid the gloom,
And wrings her dim and shadowy hands,
 And chants her song of doom.
Seven pillars, grey with time and moss,
 On dark Sleive Monard meet;
They stand to tell a nation's loss—
 A king is at their feet.
A lofty moat denotes the place
 Where sleeps in slumber cold
The mighty of a mighty race—
 The giant kings of old.
There Gollah sleeps—the golden band
 About his head is bound;
His javelin in his red right hand,
 His feet upon his hound.
And twice three golden rings are placed
 Upon that hand of fear;
The smallest would go round the waist
 Of any maiden here.
And plates of gold are on his breast,
 And gold doth bind him round;
A king, he taketh kingly rest
 Beneath that royal mound.
But wealth no more the mountain fills,
 As in the days of yore:
Gone are those days; the wave distils
 Its liquid gold no more.
The days of yore—still let my harp
 Their memories repeat—
The days when every sword was sharp,
 And every song was sweet.
The warrior slumbers on the hill,
 The stranger rules the plain:
Glory and gold are gone; but still
 They live in song again.
# A Poem as it was Presented to his Sacred Majesty

First printed in Female Poems On Several Occasions Written by Ephelia, 1679. This edition is located in the Beinecke Rare Book & Manuscript Library.
A POEM as it was PRESENTED TO HIS SACRED MAJESTY
On the Discovery of the PLOTT,
Written by a Lady of Quality.
HAILE Mighty Prince! whom Heaven has desig'nd To be the chief delight of human kind: So many Vertues croud your Breast that we
Do alwaies question your Mortality:
Sure all the Planets that o're Vertue raigns,
Shed their best Influence in your Royal Veins:
You are the Glory of Monarchial Pow'rs,
In Bounties free as are descending showrs;
Fierce as a Tempest when ingag'd in War,
In Peace more mild than tender Virgins are;
In pitying Mercy, you not imitate
The Heavenly Pow'rs, but rather emulate.
None but your self, your suffrings could have born
With so much Greatness, such Heroick scorn, When Hated Traytors do your Life pursue,
And all the World is fill'd with Cares for you;
When every Loyal Heart is sunk with fear,
Your self alone cloth unconcern'd appear; Your Soul within, still keeps it's lawful state, Contemns and dares the worst effects of Fate,
As the bright Majesty shot from your Eye,
Aw'd your tame Fate, and rul'd your destiny. Though your Undaunted soul bare you thus high,
Your sollid Judgement sees ther's danger nigh;
Which with such care and Prudence you prevent
As if you fear'd not but t'would cross th'event.
Your Care so nobly looks, it doth Appear
Tis for your Subjects, not your Self you fear:
Heaven! make this Princes Life your nearest care,
That does so many of your Best Vertues share: If Monarchs in their Actions copy you,
This is the nearest Piece you ever drew:
Blast every hand that dares to be so bold,
An Impious Weapon 'gainst his Life to hold
Burst every Heart that dares but Think him ill; Their Guilty souls with so much Terrour fill,
That of themselves they may their Plott unfold,
And Live no longer then the Tale is told.
Safe in your Care, all else will needless prove Yet keep him safe to in his Subjects Love. Your Subjects View You with such Loyal Eyes They know not how they may their Treasure prize: Were You defenceless, they would round you fall, And Pile their bodies to build up a wall. Were you distrest, 'twould prove a gen'rous strife, Who first should lose his Own, to save Your Life, But since kind Heaven these Dangers doth remove, Wee'l find out other wayes t'express our Love. Wee'l force the Traytors all, their souls resign, To herd with him that taught them their design.
FINIS.

TO THE MEMORY OF BISHOP HEBER.*
By Mrs. Hemans.
If it be sad to speak of treasures gone,
 Of sainted genius called too soon away,
Of light from this world taken whilst it shone,
 Yet kindled onward to the perfect day—
How shall our grief, if mournful these things be,
Flow forth, oh guide and gifted friend, for thee!
Hath not thy voice been here amongst us heard?
 And that deep soul of gentleness and power,
Have we not felt its breath in every word,
 Wont from thy lip, as Hermon's dew, to shower?
Yes; in our hearts thy fervent thoughts have burned—
Of heaven they were, and thither are returned.
How shall we mourn thee? with a lofty trust,
 Our life's immortal birthright from above!
With a glad faith, whose eye to track the just,
 Through shades and myst'ries lifts a glance of love,
And yet can weep!—for Nature so deplores
The friend that leaves us, though for happier shores,
And one high tone of triumph o'er thy bier,
 One strain of solemn rapture be allowed!
Thou, that rejoicing on thy mid career,
 Not to decay, but unto Death hast bowed!
In those bright regions of the rising sun,
Where Victory ne'er a crown like thine has won.
Praise! for yet one more name, with power endowed,
 To cheer and guide us onward as we press;
Yet one more image on the heart bestowed,
 To dwell there—beautiful in holiness!
Thine, Heber, thine! whose memory from the dead
Shines as the star which to the Saviour led.

# A Short Biographical Dictionary of English Literature/Taylor, Isaac

Taylor, Isaac (1787-1865). -- Philosophical and historical writer, artist, and inventor, was the most eminent member of a family known as the Taylors of Ongar, which has shown a remarkable persistence of ability in various departments, but especially in art and literature. His grandfather and f., who bore the same name, were both eminent engravers, and the latter was the author of various books for children. T. was brought up to the hereditary art of engraving, in which he displayed pre-eminent skill, his work gaining the admiration of D.G. Rossetti. He decided, however, to devote himself to literature, and for 40 years continued to produce works of originality and value, including Elements of Thought (1823), Natural History of Enthusiasm (1829), Spiritual Despotism (1831), Ancient Christianity (1839), Restoration of Belief (1855), The Physical Theory of Another Life, History of Transmission of Ancient Books, and Home Education, besides numerous contributions to reviews and other periodicals. Besides his literary and artistic accomplishments T. was an important inventor, two of his inventions having done much to develop the manufacture of calico. Two of his sisters had considerable literary reputation. ANN T., afterwards 'Mrs. Gilbert' (1782-1866), and JANE (1783-1824) were, like their brother, taught the art of engraving. In 1804-5 they jointly wrote Original Poems for Infant Minds, followed by Rhymes for the Nursery and Hymns for Infant Minds. Among those are the little poems, "My Mother" and "Twinkle, twinkle, little Star," known to all well-conditioned children. Jane was also the author of Display, a tale (1815), and other works, including several hymns, of which the best known is "Lord, I would own Thy tender Care." The hereditary talents of the family were represented in the next generation by 'Canon Isaac T.' (1829-1901), the s. of Isaac last mentioned, who, in addition to The Liturgy and the Dissenters, pub. works in philology and archæology, including Words and Places and Etruscan Researches; and by JOSIAH GILBERT, s. of Ann T., an accomplished artist, and author of The Dolomite Mountains, Cadore, or Titian's Country, and ed. of the Autobiography of his mother.

In 1807 he pub. a small vol. of poems and songs, which met with success, and carried his hitherto local fame over his native country. Always delicate and sensitive, a disappointment in regard to the publication of an enlarged ed. of his poems so wrought upon a lowness of spirits, to which he was subject, that he drowned himself in a canal. His longer pieces are now forgotten, but some of his songs have achieved a popularity only second to that ​of some of Burns's best. Among these are The Braes of Balquhidder, Gloomy Winter's now awa and The Bonnie Wood o' Craigielea.

This desecration, which was defended by Dr. Johnson, kept the stage till well on in the 19th century. He also wrote various miscellaneous poems, now happily forgotten. He is best remembered as the Tate of Tate and Brady's metrical version of the Psalms, pub. in 1696. T., who succeeded Shadwell as Poet Laureate in 1690, figures in The Dunciad.

# A Short Biographical Dictionary of English Literature/Taylor, Bayard

Taylor, Bayard (1825-1878). -- Poet, b. in Pennsylvania of Quaker descent, began to write by the time he was 12.
