THORNS AMONG THE ROSES


Her darling son mother ey'd,
Oils childish gambols playing,)
When suddenly with JOY he cried
AS near a rosebud straying,
III seize the blushing how'rs SO fair,
Which yonder bush discIoses-
Nay, touch them not, my son, for there
Are thorns among the roses.
He seiz'd the Aow'rs with eager force,
OF good advice unheeding;
His stubbornness soon brought remorse,
His hand was torn and bleeding
Hush naughty child, the mother says,
And cease your idle grieving,
And learn from disappearance
Are oftentimes deceiving.
AS on in youths bright path you go,
Where many flowers reveal'd,
Remember those that fairest blow
Have sharpest thorns conceald
Be this charge written on your breast,
And let not time annul it
Whatever flower thou hkest best,
Examine ere you Gull it. YORICK.

DIRGE OF ALARIC, THE NlSIGOTH,
Who stormed and spoiled the city Of Rome, al
afterwards buried in the channel of the riv
,entius, the water of which had been diyertt
n its course that the body might be inferred,
When am dead, no pageant train
Shall waste their sorrows at my bier,
Nor worthless pomp Of homage vain
Stain it with hypocritic tear
For | will die as | did live,
Nor take the boon | cannot give
Ye shall not raise marble bust
Upon the spot where repose,
Ne shall not taWn before my dust,
In hollow circumstance of woes;
Nor sculptured clay with lying breath,
Insult the clay that lies beneath
Ye shall not pile with seryile toll
Your monuments upon my breast,
Nor vet within the common soil
Lay down the wreck of Power to rest;
Where man can boast that he has tod
On him, that was g the scourge of God"
But We the mountain stream shall turn,
And hollow for your soyereign's urn,
A resting place forever there
Then bid its everlasting springs
Flow back upon the King of Kings
And never be the secret said,
Until the deep gives up his dead
My gold and silverye shall fling
Back to the clods that gave them birth =
The captur'd crowns of many king,
The ransom of a conquered earth:
For cen though dead will l control
The trophies Of the Capitol.
But when, beneath the mountain tide,
we've laid your monarch down to rot,
We shall not rear upon its side
Pillar nor mound to mark the spot
For long enough the world hath shook
Beneath the tewors Of my look;
And now that have run my race,
Th' astonished realms shall rest a space.
My course was like the river deep,
And from the northern hills | burst,
Across the world in wrath to sweep,
And where l went the spot was curs'd-
Nor blade of grass again was seen
Where Alaric and his hosts had been.
See how their naughty barriers fall
Beneath the terror Of the Goth,
Their iron-breasted legions quail
Before my ruthless Sabaoth,
And low the Queen of empires kneels,
And grovels at nay chariot wheels.
Not for myself did | ascend
In judgment my triumphal car;
Twas God alone on high did send
The ayenging Scythian to the war,
To shake abroad, with IRON hand,
The appointed scourge Of his command.
With iron hand that scourge he rear'd
Ger guilty king and guilty realm,
DISTINCTION WAS the shin | steered

&c. produces two or three Instances Of
ridiculous situations, in which great men
have been seen. One of them must have
been singularly so. The celebrated Con-
stable Anne de Montmorency, a man
whose yalor and military skill were only
exceeded by his pride, his cruelty, and
his bigotry, vas ordered by Francis l. Of
France, to carry on his shoulders, or any
way that he could contriye it, his niece,
the princess ofNavarre,to the altar, where
she was, against her will, to be married
20 the " Due de Cleves." This, Bran
tome observes, was hard task, as the
little lady was so loaded with Jewels, and
rich brocade Of gold and silver, that she
could scarcely walk. The whole court
were amazed at the Kings command
he Queen of Navarro was pleased, as
she wished her daughter to be humbled ,
on account of her having imbibed Luthe-
IAN principles but the Constable was
much hurt, at being exposed to the :idi-
cule Of the whole world, and said, " 1t is
aenceforward over with me: my favor at
court is passed away" accordingly, he
vas dismissed as soon as the wedding was
over.

Wash'd out the long arrears Of guilt.
Across the everlasting Alp
pour'd the torrent Of my powers,
And feeble Caesars shriek'd for help,
In vain within their seven-hill'd tower
quench'd in blood the brightest gem
That glitter'd in their diadem.
And struck darker, deeper die
In the purple Of their majesty,
And babe my northern banners shine
Upon the conquered Palatine.
My course is run, my errand done,

But never yet shall set the sun
OF glory that adorns my name.
And Roman hearts shall long be sick
When men shall think of Alaric.
My course IS run, my errand done
But darker ministers of late
Impatient round the eternal throne
And IN the caves of vengeance wait,
And soon mankind shall blench away
Before the name Of Attila
The dream on the pillow
That fits with the day,
The leaf Of the willow
a breath wears away;
The dust on the blossom,
The spray on the sea;
Ave-ask thine own bosom
Are emblems of thee
When | trust the dark waters,
And tempests are near,
List the blue seas false daughters,
And think not on fear
@ then I'll believe thee
As once | believed,
Nor dread thou'lt deceive me
As thou hast deceived.
When the rose blooms at Christmas
I'll trust thee again,
Or the snow falls IN summer
But never till then
The ladies' garland. [volume] (Harpers-Ferry, Va. [W. Va.]) 1824-1828, 1824-07-24
DIRGE OF ALARIC, THE NlSIGOTH,

Who stormed and spoiled the city Of Rome, and
was afterwards buried in the channel of the river
Busentius, the water of which had been diverted
from its course that the body might be inferred,
