that he has fought and bIed for these, and that
when he had power in his hands, he had used

the relation of Ocatius, very much afflicted with

very pains, he caused it publicly to be pro-

ever he might be, that would relieve him from those

POETRY.

TO A FEMALE FRlFND--nr THE BOSTON B>Rn
In the life Of the ndctatlgablc traveller, Mungo
PAX, it is asserted that he once became exhaust
ed the burning Desert, that he sank on the sand,
and abandoned himself to despair however. glanc-
ing his eye around to take last survey Of the hca
vens and the trackle,, PLAIN he saw near him
small tut Of grass, fresh and Of diverse and beau-
fu hues This pleasing sight restored his torti-
tude, and he proceeded hls tolsome journey
over the vast and sc0rching Desert
As oyed the fainting heart of Park,
Meath Atrlc', scochng sky,
When hope had led LIES fragile bark,
And down he sank to die;
As loved his heart, when to his view
The bright green tuft appeared,
And babe the life-blood flow anew,
Through channels shrunk and scared
SO thou, dear girl, to me arose,
Amid this scene OF Wo:
Forth from my heart the warm tide flows,
And melts surrounding SNOW;
Like Park, my forttude had fled,
Like him hope resgned
On the W orld's waste laid my head,
Nor cast LOOK behind.
But thou, sw cct howret, fresh and bright.
Bent DER my desert breast,
All pure and lovely as the light
OF bliss among the best
The fragrance OF thy virtues gave
New ardour to my soul,
fed the confines of the grave,
And spurned despar's controul.
Oh, woman wrctchcd is the heart,
10 which, iii surr0W 5 night,
Thy sunshine Can no warmth impart,
Afford no ray Of light
Thank heaven he lives not, could rot live,
SO plunged III wo as THIS
To whom new ljfc chou couldst not give,
And add to earthly bliss.
