THE DEAD TWINS.

i. Twas summer and Sabbath eve,
And balmy was the air;
saw a sight that made me grieve;
And yet the sight was fair
Within little coffin lay
Two lifeess babes as sweet as May.
Like n-dolls that infants dress,
Their little bodies were
4 look of placid happiness
Did on each face appear;
And in the coffin, short and wide,
They lay together, side by side
4 rosebud nearly closed found
Each little hand within,
And many pink was strew'd around
With sprigs of Jessamine
And yet the flowers that round them
lay
Were not to ne more fair than they
Their mother, as lilly pale,
Sat by them on bed,
And bending DER them told her tale,
And many tear she she'd;
Yet oft she cried amidst her pain,
My babes and | shall meet again"

THE SIGH.
BY J. p. cuRRAN, ESQ.

Oh give to sorrow, momentary ease,
Thou gentle telLtale ola pensive breast;
For thou, when cheating hope no more can
please,
Thou canst afford, at least, a transient rest.
Oh then, ambiguous, joyless, softly rise,
While the tear trembles on the paid cheek /;
2evere the virtue which sigh denies,
TO save the breaking heart, that dares not
speak.
