Yon evening rose that weeps in dew,
May oft my girl resemble you;
SO when May-morn is robed in light,
And all its bloom is blushing bright,
.! then my ANN it looks like you!
Beneath that rose thorn is hid,
Like tear beneath my Annals lid;
II tells my heart that sorrow keen,
10 steal its bloom is lurking seen.
Impassioned souls when prone to love,
Must oft in gloom and sadness rove;
Yet mild-eyed HOPE her balm bestows,
To heal the wound thus torn by woes.
Oh! vast for me, that fervid sigh,
The languor of that melting eyel
Those pulsive words that love did speak,
When busy hectics past your cheeki
O!YEs will believe it true,

ON THE DEATH OF DIR. RUSH.

In mournful numbers, would the muse re-
late,
The stern DEGREES of unrelenting fate;
With heartfelt grief the gen'ral loss de-
plore,
And family echo. Rush is now no more.
What tho from earth thy mortal part has
fed,
And thy lov'd form lies Numbered with the
dead;
While virtues cherish d vot 'res hold her
dear,
For thee shall virtue drop her sacred
tear
Genius and worth now how ring DER thy
tomb,
Shall view their choicest flow 'rets cease to
bloom,
The path of science long with honor
trod,
Join'd to religion. led thy soul to God,
And in thatbrighter world to which thou rt
flown,
The mercy giv'n by Heav'n is now thy
Not all the verse which pompous Milton
swell,
Could half thy greatness, half thy good
ness tell,
Simple the lay my humble muse inspires,
The chill of sorrow damps poetic fires.
How oft thy skill recall'd the ling ring
breath,
And wip'd from pallid cheeks the dews of
death,
Checked the sad progress of each fell dis
ease,
Restor'd to sinking hearts content and
ease.
Alas! thy labors DER, thy weary head,
Now rests in peace within thy clayey
bed.
But o. blest spirit. from yon blissful
plain,
Some comfort breathe, in soft saraphic
strain,
Teach us like thee to live, like thee to
die,
And then, triumphant. hail thee in the
sky.
