\ SKETCH FnoM LIFE.

SKETCH FnoM LIFE
She looked being of unearthy mould
a thing superior to the frowns of fate;
And never did my wondering eyes behold
A maid SO fair wholly desolate;
ct was she once child of high estate,
Untouched OF sorrow, till its stormy water
Swept DER her with annhilating weight,
And mid surrounding cloud & tempest brought hen
WRECK To RUNS shorc-earihs sweetest, loyeiest
daughter
Dark was her eye, heaven, when CATERING thunder
Comes slowly travelling up the muffled sky,
And tying strangers viewed with e. wonder,
Its GLANCE of still expressive misery:
Her cheek was pale, her brow serene and hiph
Her look distrnught, and in her liveliest tone
breathd the low pensive music of sigh:--
On! woman's fond and breaking heart alone,
That hottest shrine oflove, can breathe such plain
tive moan.
on when the spirit Of departed light
Waned in ewes shadowy chambers she vooldI lem
Upon the puseless bosom of the night
Sorrows meek image u morn be seen
Pacing with leaden steps the fresh cool green
OF mead and dell; or when, al midnight hour,
The eyes of heaven looked forth with glance serene
Or when the storm swept by on wing of power
Mute-mRillcss-w she view star fash and
thunder lower.
She was the child of nature: earth, sea, sky,
Mountain and, cataract, thyny hill and dale,
Possessed, when thought returned i'll her younr eve
y nameess magic, for In Ellie low vale
Her heart first listened to a lovers tale:
iWuS thore-ere yet IN Mays capricious eve
Her wanderer had unfurlcd his fatal sail
Love taught her fond unpractised heart to grieve,
And with boon natures charms his widest spells to
weave.
But she Is gone; unknown from life she passed
Like poor exile from his native home
No mother mourned her loss, when downward cast
The chill dust ratified on her virgin tomb;
Alone she lived--nlone within the gloom
Of death she slumbers-never more To prove
iiow rates sure canker dims the rising bloouI
OF young Affection, never more to rove
wnnderer through the bleak and stormy world
of love.
But Oft at eve, when day is 10 the west,
And lingering winds DER mead md moorand die
Strange sounds come stealing from her place of rest,
And sink into the heart, like wonans sinh:
The twittcring thrush tho cuckoo wild and sLv
Tho matin lark, the music laden rill
Four on the night their funeral minstrelsy
Ger her who sleeps, while oil around is still
Her last long, dreamless sleep, beside Llansaddon
hill.
