Diana-like waist, and his hand sported in
playful dalliance with the tassels of her

representation of the state of their hearts
for she loved him with all the intens-

BY D'IsR AELI.

NV heart is like a silent lutte
Some faithless hand hath thrown aside,
Whose chords are dumb, whose tones are mute
That once sent forth voice OF pride;
Yet even Ger the lutte neglected
The winds of Heaven will sometimes fly.
And even thus the heart detected,
Will sometimes answer with sigh.
And yet to feel another's power
May grasp the prize for which pine;
And others now may pluck the flower
cherished for this heart of mine:
No more! no more. the hand forsaking,
The lutte must fall and shiverd lie,
While my poor heart, in silence breaking,
Responds not even with sigh.

Thou knight of windy broils What God did well
Thou hast too we'll undone!
Thou hadst too fair temple for the soul
That now holds riot in its carnal halls
Those spirit rit-windows-those red, watery eyes
By Nature wrought to drink her glorious pomp
And feast upon her lore, thou hast sutcharged
With purulence and most Incorporate blood!
Thy Iashes drip with superative filth,
And the red corners of each blinking eye
Purge nauseou> matters down thy bloated cheeks,
As tho in rotten dissolution changed,
Thy soul was eking thence! Thro' all thy veins
Thro' all the sluggish tissues of thy frame
Disease dstils his lep'rous crew to rise,
And with one blow undo the carnal knot,
Or gnaw thee piecemeal from the living world!
From the great angles of thy blubbering lips
Run nauseous streams thro' thy filth 6lterng beard:
Ayaunt, poisoned fool Thou beef-stal lounger!
Thou horrid, blue, cadaverous bIoat.
Thou tottering iazerhouse of leprosies!
Thou devils lamp by night. Thou mortal shame
By day! Conceal from human sight
Thy Aurora Boreas of nose
Thy i,afhsome cheeks,
O'erblazing with rapture of red boils!
Where are thy fathers councils?
Where the weaitn ne gave uCTraset
Where that mothers prayers. who hoped and
watched,
And hoped thro' hours of WEAKNESS and grief
For uobler traits and loftier destiniesl
Thou yassaI to the slave thou ddst create!
Thou beast of appetite. Thou moral corpse!
Go purge thy soul. Fly to the wilderness,
And hide thee in some solitary cave,
Far from the hesh tools of human hends,
Who with pomp OF lep'rous arts would rot
Thee from the earth. Go hide thee there until
Sweet Natures course--sure architect OF health,
Shall strip tn cadavrous horrors from thy cheeks
Make firm thy wat'ry brain, and send thee forth
Once more a man!
