WISH.

Mine be the abbey's wild retreat
With mark and wood surrounded wide.
Where grass should form verdant sea''
And field flowers shed their scented pride;
The abbey, where the armourd hall
Should own the.psinssa Widows light
The oak-erown walk, where rock. should calls,
Returning from their evening fight;
The river lost among the trees,
The torrent rushing down the steep;
Groves. where the summers signing breeze
In moonlight night might teinpt to sleep
There, through the lonely path I'd rove,
And stop to carch the yita's geaini
Led by the valued youth love,
I'd watch the SUMS expiring beam.
Oft on his arm I'd range the wood,
Or, lonely, in the park I'D read,
Or frequent sess the shaded food,
Rousing the wild deer with my tread.
And a. the moon, IL hutumn's night,
sverd the fallen leaves, and cast
Along our path a track of light,
Wed roam, nor fear the howing blast.
The Leaflets trees, the thick s.rewn path
May call unchecked the thinking sigh,
And the loud wind. destructive wrath
May warn US that we both must die.
But then the rolling orbs above,
The starry concave, would proclaim
That other worlds should see our love
And sanctify the glorious name.
