SONNETS.
BY HENRY FRANK LOTT.
MORNING.—(SHOOTER'S BILL, RENT.)
God of the universe ! the humblest lyre
That at creation's charms e'er woke a string
Vibrates before thee, now the sable wing
Of night folds up, as yon pale gleam of fire
Shoots up the orient : and the woodland choir,
From off their plumes the night-dew fluttering,
Full in the ear of new-born morning sing ;
But only sing ;—I warble and admire,
And deem me happy that mine early toil
Leads me to gaze on the magnificence
Of such an hour as this—impressed the while
That I'm more blest than he whom indolence
Lulls o❑ a bed of down—where morning's smile
In vain might seek to pierce his curtain'd sense.
EVENING.--(DOXLEY ABBEY, RENT.)
'Tis June's most tranquil eve, the far off west
Is gorgeous with the day-god's slow decline;
And beautifully his bright beams fringe and line
The heaped•up clouds that pillow him to rest.
Now wakes the poet-feeling in my breast,
Freed from the smoky city's dull confine ;
Renewing fealty to the sacred Nine,
At sight of landscape in such glory drest.
Spirit of Beauty ! that, enthroned around,
Pour'st thy warm influence to the inmost heart,
Behold me worship on this holy ground,
That thou createat by thy potent art ;
Transfixed in wonder, in enchantment bound,
linger here until thou dolt depart.
