EXTRACTS FROM AN UNPUBLISHED
~ POEM.
IT'S night where the deep wave Of ocean is
rushing
'Tis night where the breezes Of evening
swell
'Tis night where the Aowrets are silently
blushing
Unseen by the bright eyes that love them
so well ];
All now is the shadowy hour Of feeling
When ioy wakes TO revel and sorrow to
weep
Aud hark-whcn their wild mingled murmur'
are stealing
An echo reply to the wall Of the deep.
Ifto yon silver orb was given
A tongue to tell the deeds ofeven
Shed whisper no: Of hearts that climb
Nearer the heaven from whence they came
Or on the resting wing Of Timo
Plunge in the gulfof sin and shame
Till earth has not reptile thing
More coldly darkly wtherng--
Shed tell no tale OF brighter bliss
Or darker deeper wretchedness
Than might be found beneath thy sky
OF cloudless bluc-oh Italy
Thou--tho young paradise of earth,
Glowing in natures witchery,
There's not thing Of mortal birth
But saves its sweetest smile for thee
The loveliest hqwor, the brightest green
Is blooming DER thy fairy scene,
Softly around the almond tree
The purple vine is clinging,
While every breeze that wakes for thee,
Ten thousand swoots is bringing
And ah what splendour in the beam
That lightens the enchanted dream
Whether it sleeps upon the hill
Or gilds the softly murmuring rill,
Or kisses the young summon flower,
Or swcetcr far young beautys cheek,
AS stealing in her rosy bower
IL dares the sacred shadow break
Or lingering on the mountain height,
AS loath to quit so fair place,
Stllin its bright unclouded light
One peerless purity ye trace
All sure if love essay'd to find
One little spot of earthly rest,
Bright as the heaven he left bohnd,
T'would be, fair Italy-thy breast.
Alas that where Heaven's S sunbeams fall,
Man is the cloud that darkens all
For see, in yonder lonely bower
a .ruder tread has crush'd the flower,
And that bright spot can breathe tale
OF horror to the passing gale
There hatred holds his fierce career
Unchill'd by time, uncheck d by fear;
And ask ye where his victims Sleep
Go mark the unhallow'd grave
Or ask the dull cold murmuring deep
What broke its midnight wave
Revenge revenge---the page Of Timo
Has marked his way through blood and crime
Till sated i'm his 6endlike course,
And sickening at tho ruin done,
IN blackcning withcring remorsc,
lie knees before the altar stone,
And torture we'll might shrink to share
That deeper madness Of despair.

"They made her grave, too cold and damp,
For soul so warm and true
And she's gone to the Lake of the Dismal
Swamp,
Where, all night long, by freely lamp,
She paddles her white canoe
And her FREELY lamp soon shall see,
And her paddle / soon shall hear
Long and loving our life shall be,
And I'll hide the maid in cypress tree,
When the footstep of death is near 20
Away to the Dismal Swamp he speeds
His path was rugged and sore,
Through tangled juniper, beds ofreeds,
Through many fen, where the serpent feeds
And man never trcd before
And, when on earth he sunk to sleep,
If slumber his eyelids knew,
He lay, where the deadly vine doth weep
Its venemous tears and nightly steep,
The flesh with blistering dew
And near him the she.wolf stirrd the brake,
And the copper snake broathd in his ear,
Till he starting cried, from his dream awake,
"Oh when shall see the dusky Lake,
And the white canoe Of my dear 2"
He saw the Lake, and meteor bright
Quick over it's surface playd-
Welcome he said, "my dear ones light ''
And the dim shore echoed, for many night
The name of the death-cold maid
Till he hollowd boat of the birchen bark,
Which carried him off from shore
Far he follow'd the meteor spark,
The wind was high and the clouds were dark
And the boat return'd no more.
But oft, from the Indian hunters camp
This lover and maid so true
Are seen at the hour Of midnight damp,
To cross the lake by FREELY lamf',
Aud paddle their white canoe

ABSENT FRIENDS.

How many an anxious thought TO thee,
Home Of my heart, this bosom sends!
How oft my wandring visions fee,
To hover round thee ahsont friends.
Creative fancy freely rove;
And while thy. blissfu power extends,
Oh wait my soul to those love
To wife and child dear absent friends.
Then whisper 10 my heart that one,
In thought, the wanderers path attends;
And say, though weary, far, and lone,
His image lives--with absent friends.
But, busy Memory, Danish care;
Bright Hope on thee this heart depends
Be every thought as flee as air,
move to greet thee-absent friends
Once more upon the waters cast,
NV bark towards her haven wends
And ere the shades of night be past,
These arms shall clasp dear absent friends

Tell us, thou glorious S.ar Of eve
What secs thine eye
Wherever human hearts can hcave,
Mans misery!
Life, but a lengthened chain;
Youth, weary, wild, and vain
Age on bed ofpain
Longing to die
Yet there's rest
Where earthly agonies
Awake no sighs
in the cold breast.
Tell us thou glorious Star ofeve
Sees not thine eye
Some spot where hearts no longer hoave,
In thine own sky
Where all Life's wrongs are Der,
Whore Anguish weeps no more,
Where injurd Spirits soar,
Never to die.
