My reign shall last when time shall be no more
Say who can fly me mount the realms of air;
VI Iathom oceans depth, and AN there,
Or, If Perchance you like the journey we'll,
Plunge To the darkest sha des of deepest hell:
i heie also extend my ample reign,
Midst shrleks and groans OF agomzlns pain.
All things above, below, or grea, small,
Are full of me, ana am iuil of all
Tho motioniess am, yet withou, me,
No motion Is, no change can ever be
Tho kings might strive i'll vain, with power or
art,
To move my most infinitely trivial part,
Yet smallest atoms pierce me through with ease,
And am Pervious to the gentest breeze.
You ask my shape-a mgnty sphere ain l,
Greater than earth, and AR, and sea, and SKY,
Wherever you so, whatever spot you enter,
Here, there, and every Where, ID placed my cen
ire
But no where my periphery and hence
\ on seek in VAN Tor my circumference.
Yet tho ain this vast, unwleidy thing,
YOUTH find me in the circle of a ring,
Such as Queen NAB, or FAIRY Puck might wear,
Or gay i,tania with the golden halr
Nay, IN the pupil of mdge's eye,
Beyond thy PryBg search secure lie.
In flne, neither matter am nor spirit,
So guess my name, ana allow you merit.

To the Enigma, BY Mr. James .Stua1,
IL the Belfast News Letter
Yes ere the moon diffused her silver light,
With soft effulgence DER the gloom ofnight,
Or ere the sun awak'd his genial ray,
And pour'd on earth his soul enlivenng sway,
SPACE reign'd triumphant IN the realms on high
And SPACE shall reign when all things else must
die.
Thee, nought can 'scape in hcav'n, in earth, or
hell,
On land or sea---n ev'ry place you dwell
ALI, all IS full of thee, prevailing SPACE
Whose power, cen Time itself can ne 'er efface
Who takes creation in thy ample wing,
Yet dwells within fairy elfns ring
Who reigns with COB above the azure sky,
And in the precincts Of MIDcE's eye
Thee, long my musIng fancy stray'd 10 trace,
And found thy mama to be mysterious-SPAcE
