From the Southern Literary Messenger.
HoPE-AND THOSE WE LOVE.
When from those We lore NC part,
And the spiri, droopS IN sadness
What can cheer the fsinting heart
What can speak Of Joy aud gistne.s'
HoPE alone presents the balm,
When with sad farewell ~e greet them,
HoPE alone the soul can calm,
Whispering, we again may meet them,
When from those We love We part,
Whom the hand Of death snrpt ises
What can heal the breaking heart
While the bursting sob arises
il0PE doth stand beside us there,
With glorious promise given:
Points 90 realms divinely fair,
Distant, ia the radiant HEAVENi
