THE NURSERY TALE.

Oh! did you not hear in your nursery,
The tale that the gossips tell,
OF the two young girls that came 10 drink
AT certain Fairy well
The words of the Youngest we're as sweet
As the smile of her ruby lip,
But the tongue of the Eldest seemed to move
AS if venom were its tp
Al the well beggar accosted them,
"a Sprite in a mean dsguise)
The Eldest spoke with a scornful brow,
The Youngest with fearful eyes:
Cried the FAIRY Whenever you speak, sweet girl,
Pure gems from your lips shall fall;''
But whenever y0n utter Il word, proud maid,
From your tongue shall serpent crawl"
And have you not met with these sisters oft
In the haunts of the old and young!
The first with her pure and unsued lip!
The last with her serpent tongue
Yes-the first is GooDNArURE-diamond bright
On the darkest theme she throws;
And the last is SLANDER-leaving the slime
OF the snake wherever she goes!

Be kept in fear and love.
Love for all things around our path,
And fear for those above.
Thy soft blue eyes are filed with tears,
Oh! lei them wash away
The soil of our unworthiness--
Pray for us, mother, pray!
We know how vain the fleeing flowers,
Around thine altar hung;
We know how humble is the hymn
Before thine image sung
But wilt thou not accept the wreath,
And sanctIfy the lay;
We trust TO thee, our hopes and fears,---

nd hearts of home affections, Huch as flow
, naturally in piety.
Darker and darker fall around,
The shadows from the pine,
1t is the hour with hymn and prayer
To gather round thy shrine.
Hear us, sweet mother! thou hast known
Our earthly hopes and fears
The bitterness of mortal toll,
The tenderness of tears.
We pray thee first for absent ones,
Those who knelt with US here
The father, brother, and the son,
The distant and the dear.
We pray thee for the little bark
Upon the stormy sea;
Affections anxiousness of love,
Is it not known 10 thee
The soldier, he who only sleeps
His head upon his brand,
Who only in dream can see
His own beloved land.
The wandering minstrel, he who gave
Thy hymns his earliest tone,
Who strives to teach foreign tongue
The music of his own.
Kind mother, let them see again
Their own Italian shore;
Back to the home winch, wanting them,
Seems like home no more.
Madonna, keep the cold north wind
Amid his native seas,
So that no whitening blight come down
Upon our olive trees.
And bid the sunshine glad our hills,
The dew rejoice our vines,
And bid the healthful sea-breeze sweep
In music through the pines.
