they did not enter his marble bosom. She

was unwilling to leave him, and entreated
him to give her something for ll!e-boal to
Hoat on the river which rolled rapidly by

unhappy travellers plunged in the waves !
al that instant, youth, toll ot lie and gal

careless and ignorant hand the sklfi which
bore him. Charity noticed his danger, and
the churl saw and cxciaImed, Great God

capped his lips, when The boat dashed against
