Thou vert mighty and wondrous thing, Son of the tempest and thy glorious strain Seem'd like the song of ocean, when the wing ofthe fleet winds hath smOte it, and the chain Is loOs'd from off its piniOn-fOr the string Orthy wild air-harp was in ferceness swept By lghtniug's wlherng touch, & cen would bring From each dark spirit thougts that e'er till then had

 And would hear thy harpings when the morn Comes forth to wantOn mid the opening flowers, When blending summers scents are borne From the soft shades of fragrance breathing bow

And when the day hath faded, and the sky Hath robbed itself in glory; when the voice Oflow, sweet, silvery winds that love to sigh Der slun,bering roses bids the heart rejoice In skyey visions-when the insects hum
 Mid emerald leaves with heavenly sounds is
 blending,
 And the loved spells of evening softly come Der the husl'd soul like dew on flowers descending. But thy wild strain comes o'er me with tone Ofdeeper glory when dim Night hath flung The robe of beauty from her, and puton
 The vestments of the tempest-when have sprung Things ofthe lightnng-pinion through the night or dark ming storm-clouds and the wind in might Walls like clarion bearing on its wing The rider of the storm, the tempesi's awful king.
