POETRY
«.„«•#
The brilliant evenings with which we have
of late been blessed, will give a zest to
the following extras from the moonlight
scene of Shakespeare :
" THE moon Ihines bright :—in fitch a
, 1 night as this,
When the sweet wind did gently kiss the tyees,
And they did make no noise; in such a night,
Troilus, methinks, mounted the Trojan walls,
And sighed his foul towards the Grecian tents,
Where Creffed lay that night.
" Come bring your music forth into the air,—
Mow sweet the moonlight sleep, upon this bank!
Here we will fit, and let the founds of music
Creep into our ears , foft stillness, and the night,
Become the touchesof sweet harmony.
Look how the floor of heaven
Is thick inhyed with patines of bright gold ;
There not the ftualleft orb that thou behold'ft
But in its motion like an ange! sings,
Still quiring to the young-eyed cherubim':
Such harmony is in immortal fouls;
But, whiltl this muddy vesture of decay
Doth grossly close it in, we cannot bear it.
Come, ho, and wake Diana with a hymn ;
With sweetest touches pierce your miftref? ear,
And draw her home with mufic.''

THERE are few occasions in life, in which
we arc more unremittingly called upon to watch
ourselves narrowly, and to relift the affuulfs of
various temptations, than in conversation. Van
jty jealousy, envy, misrepresentation, refent
went, disdain, levity, impatience, insincerity,
will in turn solicit to be gratified. Constantly
to struggle against the desire of being thought
more wife, more witty, and more knowing,
than those with whom we assoc demands
the incessant exertion of Christian vigilance, a
vigilance which the generality are so far from
fufpe&ing necessary in the intercourse of com
mon society, that cheerful conversation is rather
considered as an exemption and release from it
than as an additional obligation to it,
