POETRY
sToRRs, wINDERMERE LAKE,

sY MISS LANDer.
J would had a charmed bark
TIE sail that lovely lake;
Nor should another prov but mine
Its silver silence wake.
No Gar should cleaye its sunny tide;
But would float along,
As il the breath that filed my sail
Were but murmurcd song.
Then would think all pleasant thoughts;
Live early youth anew,
When hope took tones of prophecy,
And tones Of music too;
And celored life with its own hues--
The hearts true Claude Lorraine
The rich, the warm, the beautiful
I'd live them once again.
Kind faces fit before my eyes,
Sweet vsicss Gil my ear,
And friends long have ceased to love,
I'll still thmk loved, and here.
With such fair fantasies to fill,
Sweet lakei thy summer air,
II thy banks were not Paradise,
Yet should dream they were.
