From the London Htskiy Rerielr.

The Butterfly was a gentleman,
OF no very good repute;
And he roved in the sunshine all day louc,
In his scarlet and purple suit
And he left his lady wife at home,
In her own secluded bower;
Whilst he, like bachelor, flrted about
With kiss for every flower.
His lady-wife was poor glow-worn,
And seldom from home she'd stir,
She lov'd him better than all the world,
Though little he cared for her.
Unheeded she pass the day-she knew
Her lord was a rover then;
But, when night came on, she lighted her lamp,
To guide him over the glen.
One night the wandcrer homnwurd came,
But he saw not the glow worms raw:
Some wild bird saw the neglected one,
And flew with her far away.
Then beware, We Butterflies all, beware,
If toyou such time should come:
Forsakcn by wandering lights, you'll wish
You had CHERISHED the lamp at home.

on SEEING a DECEASED INFANT.

And this is death. How cold aud still,
Aud vet how lovely il appears.
Too cold TO let the gazcr smile,
And yet too beautiful for tears. 80
The sparkling eye no more is bright.
The check hath lost its rose like red,
And yet Il is with strange delight
lstand and gaze upon the dead
But when see the fair wide brow
Half shaded by the slkon hair,
That never look'd so snir as now,
When life and health were laughing there:
/ wonder not that grief should swell
So wildly upward in the breast,
And that strong passion once rebel
That need not, cannot, be supprest.
wonder not that parents eyes
In gazing thus grow cold and dim,
That burning tears and aching signs
Are blendid with the funeral bymu
The spirit hath an earthly part
That weeps when earthly pleasure flies,
And heaven would scorn the frozen heart,
That melts not when the infant dies.
And yet why MOURN That deep reposc
Shall never more he broke bv pain,
Those lips no more in signs uncosc,
phosc eyes shall never weep again.
For think not that the bl'Ishing flower
Shall wither IN the church-yard sod,
Twas made to gid an angels bower
Within the paradise of God.
Oncc more gaze, and swift and far
The clouds of death and sorrow fy!
see thee like new born star
Move up thy pat way III the sky;
The star hath rays serene and bright,
But cold and pale compared with thine,
For thy orb shines with heavenly light,
With beams unfading and divine.
5fhon let the burthen'd heart be free.
The tears of sorrow all he shed,
And parents calmly bend to sec
i'hc mournful beauty of the dead.
Thrice happy--that their infant bears
To heoven no dark'ning stains of sin,
sAnd only brcathd life's morning airs
Before its evening storms begin.
Farewell! shall not soon forget,
Although thy heart hath ceased to beat,
Ny memory warmly treasures vet
Thy features calm and mildly sweet
But no!--that look is not the last;
w vet may meet where scraphs dwell,
Where love no more deplores the past,
Nor brcathes that whitening word.--Farewel
