And I that promise claim Of thee,
To stray beyond thy guardian bower,
Alone with me.
SO dearest we will seek the glcn,
SO lovely in a night like this,
And le; me breathe my passion then,
Say yes-say yes.
And will whisper not word,
To raise blush upon thy cheek,

But whom I've told thee all my love,
All dare steal one parting kiss,
No witness but the stars above,

THE GREAT PLAGUE.

Some account Of the Great Plague IN
the 14th century, which overran almost
the whole world, may not, in this time
Of excitement, be uninteresting to our
readers, and may be the means of allay-
ing that unnecessary fear which the pre-
valence Of an uncommon disease must
necessarily excite.
This dreadful pestilencc, like the Chol-
era, made its first appearance in the
East.-It arose in China, Tartary, India
and Egypt, about the year l345. TWAS
ascribed to general corruption of the
atmosphere, accompanied by the appear
ance Of millions Of small serpents and
other venomous insects, and, in other
places, quantities Of huge vermin, with
numerous legs, and of a hidcous aspect
which filled the air with putred exhala-
ton. 1t is remarkable that, before tho
disease appeared in Europe, singular
meteorological phenomena took place.
Thus, it came to England in the end of
134S, and it had rained from the previ-
GUS Christmas till mid summer, almost
without cessation-"so that the sohilc," +"
to use the words of an old writer, "it
hardly ever held up so much as for one day
and night together."-Great inundations
followed, and accumulations of stagnans
water, by which the whole atmosphere
was poisoned. During the same period
there were many dreadful earthquakes.
AT Rome an earthquake threw down a
great number of houses, steeples and
churches, and at Naples there was an
earthquake, accompanied with tre-
mendous hurricane, which destroyed n
large portion Of the city. On this oc-
casion it is related that while friar was
preaching to ucrowded congregation, he
and his auditory were swallowed up in
an instant--all but one individual, who
observed the trembling of the earth in
time to save himself. In Greece and in
Germany whole villages were over
whelmed. In l34S, according to Lam
padius, it rained blood in Germany and
metcors aud other coruscations appeared
in the air-Mock suns were seen and
the heavens sometimes seemed on fire.
The plague extended its ravages from
India into the more western parts of
Asia. into Egypt, Abysinia, and thence
into the northern part Of Africa. II may
be literally said to have deeimatsd the
world, though we arc to take this term
as implying the destruction Of nine, in
place Of one out of ten. According to
Mezeray, where il was most favorable
it left l out of 3, or out offs, but where
it ragged most violently, it scarcely left a
18th or Goth person alive. Giovanni
VILLAIN says, that in part of Messopota-
mia only some women survived, who
were driven by extremity and despair to
devour one another.
Those attacked with the plague fre-
quentIy died in half day-generally
within day or two at the most. If
they survived the Sd day there was hope
<hough even then many fell into deep
sleep from which they never awoke.
Before the pestilence invaded Christen-
dom, il is recorded, in report made to
the pope at Avignon, that It swept away
