AfR-ss kiaioek ef Kiniock." Oh, sad was my bosom, and life dull and dreary, Till hopes cheering ray--like form frem above, And changed all to Joy with the bright smile Love- And fondly with youths pure and hallow devotion, Where the heart in its innocence, kneels at her
 shrine To the idol of Bcauty-with glowing emotion, bow d--and was biest, that her smiles were all
 mine. To man, as guide is Woman assign,d him To point out the patli OCT life's troubled waves; Where the foies and passions of frail nature assali
 him, She's the angel of light that his lost spirit saves; As the rainbow's rich arch, heavens blue field a.

 Her charms borrow light from the bright smile 0i
