POETRY.
FOR THE SPECTATOR.

There is moment of the deepest woe,
When the heart throbs, but cannot find relief,
The bosom swells but not tear will Row,
To yield channel TO this noiseless grief
living monument with glazed eye,
Upon the earth is fxd our vacant stare;
And if we breathe wish--it is to die,
In the cold grave to bury all our care,
And rest in undisturb'd repose forever there
Yes, we can yield Us to despair ike this,
And ask our God to take the life he gave!
In such moment think there's nought bliss,
But in the precincts of the silent grave
We've lost our all-the lie OF life is fed,
The form we lov'd to gaze on is no more;
Our hopes are vanished, all our joys are dead,
And we care not how soon cen life be DER,
That we may sink to dreamless sleep forever
more
The sun, that gilds all nature with his beams,
That gives the summers warmth, and beauty's
glow,
To US the herald bat Of Misty seems
From fancied bliss wakes us to real woe
i oh thing we gaze on tells us of time past -
A thousand thoughts come rushing on the mind
OF early pleasures, far too sweet to last;
Ofjoys, that fading, left no trace behind;
And of that lov'd being to the grave consgn'd.
How many hearts responsive to my strain,
BY sad experience know this picture true,
And live that anguisll'd moment DER again,
when the grave snatch'd forever from their
view
A dearer self: No tear drop dim'd the eve,
They did not call in frenzy on her name
All no, .scy could not weep, they could not
sigh,
And the chol'd voice could not an accent
frame,
But grief rag i in them with consuming fame
But 'tis not long such gloomy thoughts con
The enlightened mind: Hope with her angel.
sway,
Shedding rich tustre DER the darksome soul,
Points to that realm of everlasting day,
Where, when the throbbing heart shall cease
to beat,
And the rude warnings Of this life arc o'cr,
Congenial spirits shall in glory meet
Mid seraph-forms, shall meet, to part no more,
but in the presence of their God, dwell ever
more.
