Who left him with his dead. The king stood still

The sackcloh from his brow, and LAYING back
The pail from the still feature OF ms child
He bow a his head upon hun, and broke forth
In the rtslstless eloquencc Of We:
"Alas, my noble boy-that thou shonllst die
Thou who vert made beau fun, far
That death should settle in Thy gIorous eye,
And leave his stiffness in this clustering hair
How could he mark thee tor The silent tomb,
My proud boy Absalom
"ColI is thy brow, my son and | am chill

How was wont to feel thy pulses thrill,
Like rich harp-strng, yearnng to caress thee
And hear thy sweet "My Father from these dumb
And Geld lips, Absaom
"The Grave hath won thee-I shall hear the gush
OF music, and the voices of the young
And life will pass in the mantng blush
And the dark tresses to the soft wing flung;
But thou no more with thy sweet voice shall come

How will its love for thee, as depart,

To see thee, Absalom
"And now, farewell 'ts hard to give thee up,
With death so like gentle sumber on thee,
And thy dark sin o, could drink the cup,
If from this wo its bitterness had won thee.
May God have calld thee like wanderer home.

lie cover'd up his face, and how'd himself
A moment on his child-then giving him
look of melting tenderness, he clasp'd
HIS hands convusively, as if in PRAYER.
And as strength were given him of God,
He rose up calmly, and compos'd the pail
Firmly and decentv, and left him there
As if his rest had Seen breathing sleep.

Of Calcutta.
Ipras'd the earth, in beauty seen
With garlands gay of various green,
iprals'd the sea, whose ample field
Shone glorious as silver shield;
And earth and ocean seem'd to say,
Sour beauties are but for day -
lprais'd the sun, whose chariot rol'd
On wheels of amber and of gold;
Iprais'd the moon, whose softer eye
Glesm'd sweetly through the summer sky
And moon and SIN in answer said
sour days Of light are numbered %
Oh God oh good beyond compare.
If thus thy meaner works are fair !
II thus thy bounties gid the span
OF run'd earth and SINFUL man.
How glorl0us must the mansions be
Where thyfedeem'd shall dwell with thee
