effect, but the Queen had then refused TO

The bard, at eve retired,

With all loves vernal glow,
A gay hair from ! is bended brow,
Like faded leaf from Autumn bough.
Fell to the page below.
He paused. and with mournful m in
The sad memcnto raised.
And long upon its silvery sheen
In pensive silence gazed;
And if sigh escaped him then,
II were not strange to say,
For Fancy's favorites are but men,
And who e'er felt the stole when
First conscious Of decayl
Just then soft cheek pressed his own
With Beauty's fondest tear,
And sweet words Or atHed IN sweater tone
Thus murmured in his ear:
"Ah! sigh not, love to mark the trace
OF Times unsparing wand;
It was not manhoo'.'s outward grace.
The charm Of hultless form and face,
That won my heart and hand.
'Lo! dearest. mid these matron locks
Twin-fated with thine own.
