That faithful light, that voice so true,
Gave all thy goodness to my view;
1t silenced not the glow of mirth,
But warned me of its transient birth, rbless
And checked each thought which seemed ic
With hopes Of earthly happiness.
1T said not that must not mourn;
But tears to endless Joy would turn
And short and ieeting is the breath
Which leads us to the sleep of death
Though dark may be our night Of gloom,
Life dawns eternal DER the tomb
Oh Thou, to whose devotion true,
The brightest Of my hours drew:
Forever loved! no change shall see
The GOODNESS of my zeal for thee.
Give, oh give me light divine
And make thy promised blessing mins.

CONSCIENCE.

CONSCIENCE.
There IS light no eye can see,
There is voice which breathes in me;
1t is of pure celestial birth,
1t is voice too swift for earth,
feel it when no light is near,
1t whispers when no sound hears
1t follows wheresoe'er 60,
1t calls me from tie depth of woe;
My darkened fate its beams assuage,
And guide me through my pilgrimage;
For ever glowing in my breast
The harbinger of endless rest.
Oh! Thou, whose tender love outliyes
The woes and follies nature gives;
From THEE, whose works Ger time endure,
Descends the light of conscience pure;
From THEE, whose smile all nature seeks,
That still small voice diyineiy speaks.
1t telsme that all thy gifts are good,
1t fills my soul with gratitude.
In life's fair hour, when pleasure glowed,
Taught me that Thou vert ever near,
-'1J fHsH " 0aidS1 HOISo W SHCSIs
IT'S not when wrung with anguish keen,
Tn affection of the heart is seen;
oh ! no, it cannot probe despair,
The darkness of the grave is there;
Ills not, i'll death-bed terror thrown,
The virtue of the soul is known;
The pang of nature cannot give
The silent hope which bids it live.
OH no, thine image frowns severe,
Thy judgements and thy wrath appear:
But oh It's one long hope of Thee,
A life of parent piety,
In humble trust, which breathes of Heaven.
The worship of the heart is given.
What life so good, from error free,
Woeld cancel what it owes TO Thee?
The zeal thatin thy ~,ryice gows
Feels butthe eternal debt it owes.
Oh! never from my Utmost mind,
Where thy hlest image lives enshrined,
From earliest youth to latest age,
Shall fade thy love from memoryspage;
Shall one of all thy gifts be lost,
Mid pleasures smile, by sorrow crost.
Oh mo, felt thy grace received.
BY good enjoyed, by hopes bereaved;
No grief so cold, no hour so gay,
Could draw me from thyself away.
If buoyed by pride, one wandering thought,
Gould by the alluring world be caught,

THE FRESHMAN.
The savage loves his native shore,
Tho rude the soil and chill the air,
Then why shouldn't Ern's sons adore.
A land which nature formed SO lairs
What food reflects shore SO sweet;
AS Shannon great or pastoral Ban,
Or who friend or foe can meet,
So generous as an Irishman
His hand is rash, his heart is warm,
But principle is still his guide
None more regrets deed of harm,
And none forgiyes with nobler prdes
He may be duped but wont be dared,
More fit to practice than to plan;
And if the field of fame be lost,
1T won't be by an Lrishman.
Ifpoor and strange, he'll for you pay,
Or guide to,where you safe may be-
ltyoure his comrades, while you stay
His cottage holds jubilee.
His very soul he will unlock,
And it he may your merits scan,
Your confidence he scorns to mock,
For faithful is an lrishman.
BY honor bound, in woe or veal,
Whal'er she bids he dares to do,
Try him with bride, it wont prevail,
Put him in fire. you'll find him true.
He seeks not safety, be his post
Where'er it may in dangers van,
And if the field Of fame be lost;
1t won't be by an Irishman.
Erin's loved land from age to age,
Be thou more great, more famed and fres
May peace be thine, or should you wage
Defensive war-cheap victory,
May plenty flow in every field;
Which gentle breezes sweety fan,
And cheerful smiles serenely gild,
The breast OF every Irishman.
