been ushered into a world where she found
ii impossible TO enjoy happiness, that tor
that purpose her carriage and escort were
passing the Alpine ridge where they were
attacked by Rodolpb's band. A thousand
tender occurrences to the happy events
which had marked their former lives now
breathed from each empassioned lip. The
fierce chief seemed altered in mien and
character as he knelt by the side OF his
fair captive-his voice was softened down
10 melting harmony, and its harshest note
wasloye.
Suffice il, Elvinrosa won by the entrea-
ties OF the man she loved, formed the
wild determination of becoming his wife ;
nor was this resolve unaccomp anied by
motives which would have done horror to
the human breast, she hoped to win him
back to the world, she longed TO try the
influence of female manners upon the
minds and feelings OF bis rugged asso-
ciates, and she humbly thought that success
in each was worthy OF he destined BRIDE
OF God.
As the situation Of Elvinrosa was too de-
iicate to admit of delay, Rodolph shortly
| contrived by the assistance OF bis band, TO
have a blind folded priest conveyed TO the
cavern, where, induced by a magnificent
donceur, he united the beauteous maiden
to the %enraptured chief.
In pursuance theret IRE. other determine
ton, Elyinrosa gradually impressed upon
the mind of the robber captain, the idea
that although he bad suffered much from
an unfe cling world, yet thai others had sui
tered more deeply without yielding them
selves up to pbrenzy and desperation -
She awakened his pride by deeming il an
evidence of imbecility Of intellect, and
mterstedbis affections by the charm of her
poIisbed manners. He knew her worthy
of a world which she had renounced fer
him, and TO bury so much loveliness and
worth IN the obscurity of a bandits den
wa. grating to bis soul ; but how to aban-
don bis faithful associates was also an idea
of a peculiarly distressing nature; he knew
them devoted to his service, and 10 leave
them in their then wild and unprincipled
state was to insure their utter destruction.
HIS consultations with Elvinrosa were
such as to afford but little to cheer his mind
upon this as he deemed it, essential parti-
cular. Unused to beings such as those by
whom she was now surrounded. the lady
bandit could not enter into their views,
feelings or motives, and consequently was
totally unable to advise with the leader
upon the best e~xpedients for adoption.

Ye hapless; who, repining grieve
Az poverty and i'll;
Who doubtful, question Heavens decree,
And murmur at his VIII.
Think We that aHiuenceis the source
Whence finite blessings flow?
Think We that gold can satisfy,
Or splendor peace bestow!
Think We ambitions boasted lure
Can queachless iov impart?
Think We the Syren's draught can prove
The gileado of the heart?
Mistaken racei alas, how few
This panacea can boast;
Ye labor, but for bliss untrue,
The care and toll Is lost.
Go learn content-for riches yet
Have never fed the mind;
Go, learn content-the cofer'd wretch
May meier enjoyment find.
The choicest robe of Tyrian dye
Oft hides some bosom care,
And Virgin smiles, and sparkling Wit
Conceal the latent tear.
Art thou obscure? the writing cares
Of genius, ars not thine;
lVnknown?-rejoice! for b art free
No slave at folly's shrine.
Thine are affections purest sweets,
And thine is loves caress:
Approving peace within thy heart,
A Providence to bless.
Thine are the beauties Of the globe
The charms that sense allure;
For thee; yon azure glories burn,
Say, mortal! art thou poor!

that he might not be interrupted Alter some
minutes, he said to his wife" When desired you
not to speak TO me, had the most Transporting
and sublime feelings ever experienced wanted

Mervyn were copies of what he witnessed. " He
