THE CHILD OF SORROW TALE

Deny, bur do not taune maid
Who never fcorn with fcorn repsys:
Proud man, though now ak your aid
Mine once, alas ! were happier days.
But forrow mark d me for her own
Before told my twentieth year
Yet when my friend. began to frown,
bat reProaeh'dthem with-A TEAM.
ne'er could frame the harfh reply,
The look unkind by feeling fear'd,
Zen when met difdain's cold eve,
Zen when cruel language heard.
I've feen my friend, my earlef friend,
Reluie my tale of woe to hear;
Yet till unwilling to offend,
All my remembrance was-A TEAR.
And have known the 1anderer's tongue
My fame with vii. difhonour faint,
Yet on my lips no curfes hung,
Tho msurnjll, mild was my complaint.
And was forced by cruel power
Toleave the fcenes held moff dear;
o! twas indeed trying hour!
Yet all my language was TEAR.
And have known the youth lov'd
Retraet the vows he fwore to me,
Behold my pallid cheek unmoved,
And fmiling boail that he was free
Yet was calm--and (hour of dread y
faw him WOO maid more dear
But was mute, only fhed
Mono Il COULD n" .Grd TEAK.
All full was then my cup of grief
Friends, fortune, lover, fame, all loa.-
A beggsr now ! ak relief,
A imall. hiaiag boon at moR.
Still can you chide me from your door
All, no !--your looks eompafIion wear
So large gift oh zrsrd, were poor
thank, / blefs you ina TEAR.

A voyage at sea and all is strife,
Its pleasures and its pain,
AT every point resembles life:
Hard work for little gain.
E The anchors Weigh'd, smooth is the food,
Serene seems every form,
But soon alas, comes on the scud,
That speaks the threat ming storm,
The towering masts, in splinters shiyering,
The useless sails in tatters quiyering,
Thunder rolling, lightning flashing, II 40
Waves in horrid tumult dashing. III b
Foam along the dreary shore. u
Still vale tats sit round so jolly, 1885,.
The sprightly flute calls care folly Isl. So.
Aloft, allow, sahoat, aground,
Let but the smiling grog SO round,
And storms are heard no more.
The voyage through life is various found,
The wind is seldom fair,
Though to the Straits Of Pleasure bound
Too ottwe touch at Care
Impervious dangers we explore,
False friends, some faithiess She; eE
Pirates and sharks are found ashore
AS often asat sea.
A lowering storm, from envy brewing;
Shall at distance menace ruin,
While, SANDER, Malice, and Detraction,
a host of hends shall bring in action,
And plant Cares thorns at every pore.
Yet round to sweet domestic duty
Some manly imp or infant beauty
Clings round his neck, or climbs his knees,
Each thorn's pluck'd out, pains turn'd to ease,
And storms are heard no more. y
The ship towers gaily on the main,
To fight It's country's cause
And bids tho obedient world maintain
It's honors and its laws;
Nor from surrounding danger shrinks
/. Till sacrificed to fame;
Death dealing round she nobly sinks
Only to live in name.
And SO the man : his ample measure 80
Filpd with alternate pain and pleasure,
Till long in age and honor living, So
Lies strength worn out lesson giving,
To those he leaves his well got store.
Mild hope and resignation greeting, a
The playful soul in inches Aeeting s
