POETRY.
THE DEATH OF R. II WILDE.

BY HON 4. MEEK.
The harp that sang ",he Summer Rose"
10 strains so sweetly and so well,
That, self as dews al evenings close
The pure and liquid numbers fell,
Is hushed and shattered: DOW no more
LIS silver chords their music pour:
But. crushed by an untimely blow
Both harp and flower in dust lie low.
The bard: alas | knew him well:
A noble, generous, gentle heart,
Which as his brave hand struck the shell,
Poured feeling through The views Ct Art.
What radiant beauty, round his Tyre:
Pure as his loved Italian fire:
He ca Aht the sweetest beams Of rhine
The I'd $50 Of our Western cline:
Nor this alone-a loflier power,
THAI shone in halls OF high decree,
And swsyed the feelings Of the hour,
As Summer winds, The rippled sea-
Bright eloquence 10 him was eives.
The spark the prophet drew from Heaven:
II touched his lips with pa'ro, flame,
And shed halo round his name.
As late | .a W, | see him now:
His stalwart form, his graceful mein,
His long white locks, his smiling brow,
His eyes benignant and serene:
How pleasant, round the social hearth
When isl'ning 10 his tones OF mirlh:
What lessons of the good and true,
The brave, The beautiful, he drew.
Drop down thy willows, Southern land:
Thy bard, thine orator is dead;
he sleeps where broad magnolias stand,
With Summer Roses" DER his head:
The lordly river sweeping by
Curves, round his grave, with solemn Sigh,
And from yon lwiukling stem,
The "Mock Bird" pours his requiem.
Bard OF the South: The Summer Rose"
May perish with the Autumn leaf
The footprints lett on Tampa's" shores
May vanish with date as brief:
But thine shall be The "ife" OF fame
No winter winds can wreck thy name;
And future minstrels shall rehearse
Thy virtues. in memorial versel
