LI lERARY REVIEW.

An tLF.GY on the .Death of His bite Majesty
GEORGE ihe Mrs CocKLe.

Thy Public are indebted to this Lady not only for many
loyal Effusions of great poetical beauty, but for several
Works on EDUCATION, which are admirably calculated to
train the youthful ►wind to ktiowledge and to virtue. Her
remarks on this important subject were the result of reflection,
sound judgment, accurate observation, and long practical ex-
perience, having, we ❑nderstand, been engaged in families of
distinction, as well as in others of high respect,ability.—We
subjoin a few Stanzas /ruin this interesting Poem, and regret
that we have not room for a longer extract,

'Tis the deep sound cif Sorrow ! England's knell,
That strike; ❑pon the heart r.—her hallowing Tear,
Speaks the strong feeling of her last Fareell :
A Nation's s,:n•ow o'er a Monarch's Bier.

It falls for England's Father whose form
Tho' shrouded hi affliction, seein'd to stay,
A guardian Spirit lingering 'midst the storm,
With sweet assurance of a tranquil day.

It was a -holy spill, hround us ca'A
In fempesis and in darkness ! 'twas a beam,
That in the wildness of each wintry blast,
Still broke around us with a cheering gleam.

Tho'sdimin'd its parting splentlour—tho' the night,
Fell on its brightness with a sacred gloom; '
Yet what a radiant burst of Heavenly light
Shall pierce the awful precinct. of the Tomb,

And point his way to Glory !—Angels' care
Shall gently guide Hint with o'er4badowing pow'r,
The Christian ooly—not the Monarch there,. • .
The long•tricd Servant of the suffering hour.

Tt'ithdrawn the veil that o'er his darlien'd eye
The hand of mercy had in pity thrown:.
The " Mortal puts nit Immortality !"
The Monarch wears an incorruptire Crown
