In the churchyard Of one of the lovli-
est Villages ofthe Eastern States there
is low tomb, on either side Of which
is planted white and red-rose tree
I, is the grave of q lamented youth, and
these rose-trees were planted by his
sisters. who often come in the calm de-
cline ofa summer day to visit the tomb
and gather rose.
Sweet is the hour when natures self, at
rest,
Her power, in full dominion, is contest;
Soft fall the dews DER every leaf and flow.
And mellswing sunset gilds the ivied tow
er.
On tho still uir light sounds tho evening
breeze
Soft rustling music through the shadowy
trees;
Whilst on the bosom Of the broad still lake, /,
Light vapoury clouds refulgent beauties
wake,
And floating onward meath the azure sky,
With gold and silver fringed, altsrnats fly {;
Now piled in towers of every glorious hue,
Now bsshsd in burnish'd gold they melt
from view.
Such was the eve il was my chance to stray
Where meath proud elms the vilI,ge church
yard lay:
And at the base Of those o'erhan ging trees
I lay reclined, and wooed the whispering
breeze.
Calm was the hour, and not sound arose
To break the charm Of natures soft repose !;
When from yon tower, tha. roars it's spire
on high,
Two female forms with saddened pace drow
nigh.
Two lovely shapes in robes ofsnowy white,
Arm locked in arm, as fairy visions bright,
In lilly hands light rosy wreaths they
brought,
And beauteous aowors in graceful clusters
wrought.
Where the low tombs their mournful mar.
|. bles rear,
With gentle steps tho graceful maids sp.
pear,
And softly knesling, hung the rosy flowers,
On oso low urn, of filed by dewy showers.
Then whispered soft, "Oh brother may
the spell
Twiucd in these howery wrssths thy spiri,
tell
Our grief for thee, 30 soon, 30 early sped !
From these swoct scenes thy gentlc spirit
fled"
Tnen from their Dyes the crystal sorrow
broke,
And frequent sighs from gentle bosoms
woke,
On airy wing the zephyr, passing near,
Caught e'er il fell, and kissed the holy
tear.
The youth they loved in early dawn had
fed
From earth's cold scenes, and sought his
turfy bed;
His was form too fragile here to last.
tie galcd around and smiled, his spirit past.
And here at eve, when natures calm reposs
To no rude gsss their sister grisfs disclose,
The msidens come, and twine with dewey
flowers
Ths, still cold urn, tha, courts the evening
showers. -
