THE MUSES. BOWER.
THE DESERTED WIFE.
BY JAMES c. PERcIvAL


He comes not: have watched the moon 60 dow
And vet he comes not. Once il was not 20.
He thinks not how tlTe bitter tears do flow,
The while he holds his riot in that town.
Yethe will come and shall weep;
And he will wake my infant from its sleep,
To blend its feeble wailing with my tears.
Oh! how love mothers watch to keep,
Over those sleeping eyes that smile, which cheers
My heart, though sunk in sorrow fixed and Deep
had u husband once who loved me: now
tie ever wears frown upon his browi
And he leeds his pnssion on walRon's lip,
As bees, from laurel flowers, poison sip;
But yet cannot hate. OH there were hours,
When could hang forever on his eye,
And Time, who stole with silent swiitness by,
StIewed as he hurried on bis way with flowers,
him then; he loved me too. Ny heart
Snll finds its fondness kindle if he smile;
The memory of our loves will meier depart:
And though he often sting me with dart,
Venom'd and barb'd, and wasted upon the vile
Caresses which his babe and wife should share
Though he should spurn me, will calmly bear
His madness; and should sickness come and lay
His paralyziug hand upon him. then
/ would with kindaess all my wrongs repay,
Until the penitent should weep and say
How injured and how faithful have been!
