The following beautiful lines are from the new
novel Of Sydney Clifton.
THE PAST.

THE PAST.
The past, the past, III insatiate past,
Within her broad domain
Crushed hopes and bleeding joys lie cast,
Like wars unbaried slain
We saw her plumes In triumph wave,
A bright and fair array;
The morning misis are curling DER
The hill but where are lhey1
The past. the past, The embaming past
Behold It's march sublime:
Garnering the harvest PROSTATE cast
by the bold reaper Time
with diamond shaft, and learning's tome,
Devotion's lore divine
fames gli,!ering wreath and poesy's crown;
la added lusIre shine.
ne past, the past, the joyous past,
How bright Its visions seem, @s
When age and youth the hours contrast,
Like some enchanted dream;
Loves honeyd kiss, and manhood's pride,
AND pleasures syren strain;-
The civic wreath, the sparkling cup
Ali-all are ours again.
The past, the past, the shadowy past,
How dim the scene appears,
When eyes that on US look'd their last,
Reume in after years.
The dazzling cheat in mockery throws
It's light DER hopeless gloom,
Like faint taper's Pickering ray
Above the silent tomb
The past, the past, the mighty past:
How boundless is its sway;
Hark TO its trumpet's summoning blast,
While listening worlds obey
The conquering chief bis helmet dotfs-
The brandishd sceplre falls;
And silence reigns where vassal shouts
Rang through the festal hall.
The past, the past, the storied past
Here genius sits enshrined;
On Mis bright fame your offerings cast,
The Mecca of the mind!
Beneath those arches vanlted roofs
Immortal spirits throng;
Here Shakspeare's radiant fancy beams
Here Homer weaves his song
The past, the past, the new aedged past,
Even now with raven wing
Its heightened shadows grown more vast.
Around my foot steps cling.
My fingers vainly sweep The Tyre,
No answering tones arise;
Pale memory fees 10 happier breasts.
And hope TO brighter skies
