Winter Piece.
BY JAMES RUSSELL LOWELL.

Down swept the chill wind from the mountain
peak,
From the snow five thousand summers old;
On open void and hilltop bleak
1t had gathered all the cold
And whiried il like sleet on the wanderer's
cheek;
II carried shiver everywhere
From the unleafed boughs and pastures bare;
The little brook heard il and built roof
Meath which he could house him, waterproof;
All night by the white stars frosty CLEANS
He groined his arches and matched his beams;
Slender and clear were his crystal spars
As the lashes of light that trim the stars;
He sculptured every summer delight
In bis halls and chambers out of sight;
Sometimes his tinkling waters slipt
Down through frost-leaved forest-crypt.
Long, sparkling aisles of steel-stemmed trees
Bending to counterfeit a breeze;
Sometimes the roof no fretwork knew
But svery MOSES that downward grew;
Sometimes II was carved in sharp relief
With quaint arabesques of ce.fern leaf;e
Sometimes it was simply smooth and clear
For the gladness Of heaven to shine through,
and here
He had caught the nodding bulrush-tops
And hung them thickly with diamond drops,
Which crystal.ed the beams Of moon and sun,
And made star Of every one:
No mortal builders most rare device
Could match this winter-palace Office;
Twas as II every image that miYrored lay
In his depths serene through the summer day,
Each Aitting shadow Of earth and sky,
Lest the happy model should be lost,
Had been mimicked in fairy masonry
By the elm builders Of the frost.

Fortune can take nothing from us but
what she gave.

In the far and fading ages
OF the younger days Of earth,
When Mans aspirations quickened,
And his passions had their birth
When first paled his glorious beauty,
Andhs heart first knew unrest,
As he yielded TO the Tempter
That iniiamed Gnd filed his breast
When the Voice that was in Eden
Echoed through his his startled soul,
And he heard rebuking anthems
Through the heavenly arches roll
When he fell from the high promise
OF his beings blessed morn,
To night Of doubt and struggle
Rddiodlos then was born.
Through the ages long and dreary
That since then have dawn'd on Earth,
Man has had but feeble glimpses
OF the glory Of his birth;
Catching these, his soul, aspiring
To its morning light again,
Hard has upward toll'd, and often
Hopefully, but still IN vain.
Many a blessed song comes stealing
Downward from the Eden aisles,
Whence the light of heavenliest beauty
Still upon the banish'd smiles;
But the narInOnles are broken
OF each sounding choral hymn,
And the gloom that wells his spirit
Makes cen heavenly splendor dim.
Faint reyealings, thwarted hopings,
Wearying struggles, day by day
So the long and dreary ages
OF his life have worn away.
War, and rapine, and oppression,
Early in his course he found
Brother against brother striving
BY the few the many bound.
And in patience, and in meekness,
To the CALLING chain resign'd,
Thus the fetiered limbs have rested
Thus hath slept the dark@ned mind.
But il wakens now.-it flashes
Like the lightning ere the rain;
And those limbs grow strong. when read
They can rend the mightiest chain.
Through the slow and stately marches
OF the centuries sublime,
RsdicalOs hath been strengthening
For The noblest work Of Time.
And he comes upon the Present
Like god in look and mien,
With comPosure high surveying
All the tumult Of the scene:
Where obey the fettered millions;
Where commend the feitered few;
Where the chain of Wrong is forging,
With its red links hid from view;
And he standeth, by the peasant,
And he standeth by the lord,
And he shouts "Y our rights are equal"
Till earth startles at the word.
He hath seen the Record written,
From the primal morn of man,
ln the blood Of battling nations
Ger ensanguined plains that ran,
In the tears Of the deluded,
In the sweat of the Oppressed,
From lnd's farthest peopled borders
To the new worlds of the West
And be eometh with deliverance,
And his might shall soon be known,
Where the wronE'd rise ap for justice,
And the wrOngers lie o'erthrown.
Wo. the pride that then shall scorn him.
He will bring it fifty low.
Wo, the arm that shall oppose him:
