THE DYING WIDOW.
BY THOMAS MILLER, BASKET MAKER,

BY THOMAS MILLER, BASKET MAKER
"Those cold white curtan-folds displace--
That form | would no longer see;
They have assumed my husbands face,
And all night long it looked at me;
wished it not to go away,
Yet trembled while it did remain;
closed my eyes and tried to pray
Alas! | tried in vain.
~ know my head is very weak,
I've seen what fancy can create;
long have felt too low to speak
Oh! | have thought too much'of late
Ihave few requests to make:
just wipe these binding tears away;
know your love, and for my sake
You will them all obey.
"My child has scarce month been dead,
My husband has been dead but five;
What dreary hours since then have fed:
Iwonder am yet alive.
My child! throughhmDeath aimed the blow;
And from that hour did decline;
His coffin, when my head lies low,
would have placedon mine.
"Those letters which hmy husband sent
Before he persisted in the deep;
What hours in reading them I've spent,
Whole nights in " hch Icould not sleep;
OH they are worn with many tear,
Scarce fit for other eyes tosee;
But oft when sad they did me cheer,
Pray bury them with me.
"'This little cap my Henry wore,
The very day before he died;
And | shall never kiss it more
When deadyou'll place it by my side;
know these thoughts are weak, but oh!
What will a vacant heart not crave!
And as none 'else.can love chem so,
I'll bear them to my grave,
"The miniature that still wear,
When dead | would not have removed;
'Tis on my heart--oh leave IT there,
To find its way to where loved;
NV husband threw it tround my neck,
Long, long before he called me bride,
And was told that, midst the wreck,
He kissed mine ere he died.
"There's little that I care for now,
Except this simple wedding rings
] faithfully hath kept my vow,
And feel not an accusingstng;
Inever yethave laid it by
A moment since my bridal day:
Where he first placed it lettle:
Oh! take it not away.
"Now wrap me ir my wedding gown,
You scarce can think how cold | teeE
And smooth my ruffled pillow down;
Oh! how my clouded senses reel!
Great God! support me to the last!
Oh, let more airinto the room;
The struggle now is nearly past,
Husband and child! Icome!"

The Gosh system adopted and main
iancd by the publisher, enables hlm 10

only Two Dollars per annum cash In

ofthc wear, is notified of the expiration
of his term, when, if the subscription is
no, renewed, he is no longer served
This is far better than the old plan of
forcing the book on subscriber, if he
negccis to notify the publisher at the

ed that this is the only magazine, SINH

acter TO the three dollar monthlies, which,

nothing--of whose universe Somnus is
