on THE DEATH OF LORD NELSON.

.By the Hon. c. +. Fos.
Tn Deaths terrific icy arms
The brave illustrions Nelson Hes;
He's free from care aud wars alarms.
Sees not our tears, nor hears eur signs.
Cold is the heart where vslor reign'd,
Mute is the tongue tina. joy ipspir'd.
Still isthe arm that eonqoest gsin'd,
s And dim the eye that glery md.
Too mean for biz, world like this
He'slanded on the happy shore,
Where all the brave partske of bliss.
And heroes meet to part no more.
