POETRY


Bit but the hollow wind
Yhro' the dreary sea beach ssundin2--
Is it bat the hunted hind
fhro' the leafy desert boundings
IT'S the tread OF Grecian men,
RusEmg thro' the twilight pale,
,Tis the echo of the glen
10 their .rumpet's brazen wall.
syhat has lit that sanguine star,
SITTING on the mountains brow
IT'S the fiery sign of war
To the warrior tribes below.
Where was born the Sudden fash.
Darling upwards from the shore?
Answer-~sword and targets clash
Freedoms kallowed roar
Onward comes the mighty column,
Winding by the SILVER sea;
To itschaunt severe and solemn,
Athens hymn of liberty
Now they climb the Spartan mo untain,
Now thew sweepthe Arcadian vale,
Now beside the Argive fountain,
Glitters in the morn their MALI
Lake storm the march advances,
With deep and gathering sound
Now above the throng Of lances,
See the ancient flags abound
Bearing each a glorious name,
Each a summons tothe soul,
Each a guiding lightning flame
Soon the thunderbolt shall rolf
Not spot that host are treading,
But has been hero's grave;
But has seen tyrant's bleeding,
But has seen ransom'd slavef
Wostem, fiy thy hour IS come,
For the sword shall slnite the chain
In that shout has peal'd thy doom,
Greece shall be herself again!
