BEAUTIES OF NATURE.


BEAUTIES OF NATURE.
"Me'hinks il should have been impossible
Not TO love all things in a world so fair;
Where the breeze warbes, and the mute, still air
Is music slumberlng on her instrument"
Coleridge.
Yes, who could this lovely earth e'er tread
And look above below, around,
From the deep blue skies above him spread,
To the humblest flower that decks the ground;-
And feel not his bosom thrill with love-
AS robed in beauty lie surveyed it;
With love for it, and for HIM above
Whose bounteous hand a1rayed il?
Yes! It's a beauteous earth we tread!
The forest, hill, and dale
The myriad tinted flowers that shed
Their perfume on the gale;--
The stream, as weary ofis way,
Now leaping, foaming on,
with beauty IN its Wild play,
And music in its tone;--
Now, dallying on its waywa~d path,
Gliding from shore to shore,
Seeking each quiet nook it h?tH,
And kissing every flower
The music ofthe autumn ga'@
Its music low and sad,
As If II mourned wi that deep vail,
The wreck its pinions nadr;-
The sea,-upon whose bosom now
The stars reflected lie
30 calm,-so STILL you ma" not know
Their homes, or sea- sky
And now, upon its roc,i.bound coasts,
Bursting with awful sound
Like tn earth. shaking rush of armed hosts
Upon the battle gr, md.
These, these the charns tIat thou canst claim,
Bright Earth. To thee they all belong
Thine. thine is the ower.-t the wind--the stream
Thine, thine their beauty and their song!
Then, who through 'sWord so filled" could move
Nor feel the beauties that pervade it.
Nor join in the grateful song of love,
1t ever pours to Him who made it! ELLA
1t is rare to find in the same compass more exqisel
pohshed verslfcaon, and more real piey han are con
tanned in the following stanzas:
Pilgrim in thy Journey droar.
Are lis lights extinct forever.
Still suppress the rising fear.
God orsakes the righteous never,
Storms may gather Ger thy path,
All the ties Of life may sever
Still amid the fearful seattle,
God torsakes the righteous never.
Pain .r1ay rack thy wasting frame,
Heal',. desert the coach forever,
