 On Olive's Mount, Diana shed her silv'ry light, Brightly illuminng. the dark shades of night-
 The olive, and sweetscenting cedar trees,
 Just stirred a mild and perfumed breeze;
 The city's noise and din were hushed to rest
 And "'twas a peaceful land" seraphs confessed, When To! deep agonizing sigls the silence broke, And of sins curse, in thrilling accents, spoke. Beside fresh made grave the wise man stood, Drinking the cup of woe, though just and good, For there his son, his darling son, was laid,
 And all earhs cherished hopes and joys were stay'd And wisdom had not turned his heart to steel,
 But he did mortal anguish deeply feel
 He wept-but felt it was draught of love
 By his kind Father sent, from realms above;
 And when he clasped his hands in ugony of grief, He knew place where he could find relief Upward he turned his eye, to that bright sphere Where cheru5s sing, "No sorrow enters here.'' And though woes adverse dart his heart did wound, His tear, his bitter tear, fell to the ground.
