from which il was inferred that the Apoc-

"A writer, under the signature ofCephas,
commented on this narrative in the PAIL

this story was transcribed from a French
paper into some of ours by some diciple Of
Tom Pain, to discredit the validity of the

knew the circumspection of editors Of

THE TOMB OF ELLEN.

Stranger if by worldly views
Thy heart is dead to Loves controuls
If feeling ever nurs'd with dews
The rose of passion in thy souls
Turn from this grave, thy sulIen treads
For this il PHYS hoIiest shrine
The lilies that surround the dead,
Would shrink from such : hand As thine
But if thy brerst with ardour warm,
Beats 60 the shrilling glance of beauty
IF thou hast knelt to wOnan's charm,
With al of Loves enraptured duty
Then, stranger, pause and linger here,
For Love and Pity seldom sewers
And from the sighs to passion dear,
Where Ellen sleeps, alas, forever
Sweet l'lid within thy gentle breast,
Affection blOom'd, oh how sincerely
And why did f4te, with frown mblest,
Break fond heart that lov'd 80 dearly
For cold beneath the western wave,
Her lover found an icy pillow
No how'r to deck his lonely grave,
No dsath.shroud but the foaming bilsov
The spirit of the morn had sigh'd,
Delighted DER the roses bloom,
But sorrow came with whitening snids,
And swept IT, beauty to the tomb
Stranger! if love awake your sighs,
AAL Love and Pity seldom sevcF,
Pause Were that rose Of beauty les
Where Ellen sleeps, alas forever
