it. Thus striking at the DOT of the disorder, the

THE THINGS THAT CHANGE.
BY MRS. HEMANS.

BY MRS. HEMANS,
Know'st thou that the seas are sweeping
Where domes and towers have been!
When the clear wave is sleeping,
Those piles may yet be seen;
Far down below the CLASSY tide,
Mans dwelling, where his voice hath died!
Know'st thou that focks are feeding
Above the tombs Of old,
Which kings, their armies leading,
Have fingered to behold
A short smooth greensward DER them spread,
Is all that marks where heroes bled.
Know'st thou that now the token
Of cities once renown'd,
Is but some pillar broken,
With grass and well-howers crown'd;
While the loan serpent rears her young
Where the triumphant Tyre hath rung?
Well, well know the story
Of ages pass'd away,
And the mournful wrecks that glory
Hath left to dull decay;
But thou hast yet tale to learn,
More full of warnings, sad and stern
Thy pensive eye but ranges
Thro' ruin'd fame and hall
Oh the deep soul hath changes
More sorrowful than all
Talk not, while these before the tbrong,
Ofsilence in the place of song.
See scorn, where love hath perish'd,
Distrust, where Friendship grew;
Pride, where once Nature CHERISHED
All tender thoughts and true;
And shadows of oblivion thrown
Ger every trace of idols gone
Grieve not for tombs far scatter'd.
For temples PROSTATE laid;
In thine own heart lie shatter'd
The alters it had madei
Go, sound its depths in doubt and fear.-
Heap up no more its treasures here!

POETRY.
From Dauison's Poetical Rhapsody.
THE SOULS ERRAND.

HE SOULS EhhAND'
This bold and spirited poem has been ascribed t
several authors, but to none satisfactory author
ity. 1t can be traced to MS. of date as earl
as 1898, when Francis Dawson, who published
in his Poetical Rhapsody, was too young to b
supposed, with much probability, to have write
it; and as Davison's work was compilation, hi
claims to it must be very doubtful
Go, Soul, the body's guest,
Upon thankless errand,
Fear not to touch the best,
The truth shall be thy warrant;
Go, since / needs must die,
And give the world the lie
Tell men of high condition,
That rule affairs of State,
Their purpose is ambition,
Their practice only hate;
And ifthey once reply,
Then give them all the lie
Tell them that brave it most,
They beg for more by spending,
Who in their greatest cost,
Seek nothing but commencing:
And if they make reply,
Then give them all the lie.
Tell Zeal it lacks devotion,
Tell Love it is but lust,
Tell Time it is but motion,
Tell flesh it is but dust;
And wish them not reply,
For thou must give the lie.
Tell Age it daily wasteth,
Tell Honour how it alters,
Tell Beauty how she blasteth,
Tell Favour how she falters;
And as they shall reply,
Give every one the lie.
Tell Wit how much it wrangles
In treble points Of niceness,
Tell Wisdom she entangles
Herself in oyerwiseness;
And when they do reply,
Straight give them both the lie
Tell Physic of her holiness,
Tell Skill it is pretention,
Tell Charity Of GOODNESS,
Tell Law it is contention;
And as they do reply,
So give them still the lie
Tell Fortune of her blindness,
Tell Nature ofdecay,
Tell Friendship Of unkindness,
Tell Justice of delay;
And if they will reply,
Then give them all the lie.
Tell arts they have no soundness,
But vary by esteeming,
Tell schools they want profoundness,
And stand too much on seeming;
If arts and schools reply,
Give arts and schools the lie
Tell Faith it's fed the city,
Tell how the country erreth,
Tel Manhood shakes of pity,
Tel Virtue least preferreth;
And if they do reply,
Spare not to give the lie.
And when thou hast, as
Commanded thee, done blabbing,
Although to give the lie,
Deserves no less than stabbing;
Yet stab at thee who will,
No stab the Soul can kill.
