ODE TO SPRING.

ODE TO SPRING.
BENEATH the leahess oak stood,
And listened TO the moaning blast;
The roaring of the distant food.
Told of the storm that now was past.
When from the south advancing slow,
form Of beauty caught my eye;
saw her tears in torrents flow,
And from her lips burst many sigh.
Twas SrRNG-she view'd with shrinking fear,
The frozen stream, the barren plain,
The ioyless vale, and forest drear,
still pressd beneath the tyranl's reign.
And oft she stopd and look'd behind,
With wishful eye to southern fields,
Where vines are ronnd the green oak twin'd.
And every grove its music yields.
But fatc's commands must all obey,
Aud still advanced the weeping fair,
White every sigh that forc'd its way,
Pour'd heavenly fragrance on the air.
And soon she noted with surprise,
= That wheresoe'er her tear drops fell,
straigbtway the sweetest flowers would rise,
And bloom as though by magic spell.
Pleas'd with the sight. she rais'd her eyes,
nav lOu- were In u ilpO1 tiIe PTOuliu,
No tempest foul deform'd the skies,
But peace and beauty smil'd around
The frozen stream, the barren plain,
The joyIess vale. the forest drear,
Had lost the gloom of Winters reign,
And felt the renovated year.
With soft delight the change she view'd,
And heard sweet warbers sing their loves
= al L.
And bounded light through wales and groves.
Nor knew herself to be the power.
That clothed with JOY each bill and dale,
Gave health and sweetness to the hour,
And all its fragrance to the gale.
