The following beautiful lines from volume
OF "Poems by u Seamstress," and are said to be
truly the production of a poor English girl.
Not in the laughing bowers,
Where, by green twining elms, pleasant shade
At summers noon is made;
And where swift footed hours
Steal the rich breath OF the enamored flowers
Dream J. Nor where the golden glories be,
At sunset LAYING o Ter the flowing sea,
And to pure eyes the faculty is given,
TO trace the smooth ascent form earth to heaven.
Not on the couch of ease,
With all the appliances of joys at hand
Soft light. sweet fragrance. beauty at command,
viands that might god-llke palate please,
And music . soui-creative ecstacies
Dream l. Nor gloating o era wild estate,
Till the full self-complacent heart, eiate,
Well satisfied with bliss Of mortal birth,
g Signs for an Immortality on earth.
But where the incessant din
Ofiron hands, and roar of brazen throats,
Join their unminging notes;
While the long summer day is pouring IN
Till day is gone and darkness doth begin
Dream Las in the corner where | lie,
On win,ry nights just covered from the sky,
Such is my fate, and barren though II seem,
Yet, thou blind, soulless scorner, yet dream
And, vet dream [been
Dream WHAT Were man more just, might have
How strong, how fair, how kindly and serene,
Glowing Of heart, and glorious of mien,
The conscious crown to natures blissfu scene.
In just and equal brotherhood to glenn,
With all mankind exhaustiess pleasure keen;
Such is my dream.
And, yet dream
/, the despised Of fortune, lif mine eye,
Bright with the lustre of integrity,
In unsppealng wretchedness on high,
And the last rage Of destiny defy
Resolved alone TO liye-alone to die,
Nor swell the tide Of human misery.
And, We, | dream fcome,
Dream Of sleep where dreams more shall
My last, my first. my only welcome homei
Rest, unbeheld, since life's beginning stage,
Sole remnant Of my glorious heritage.
Unaenable, / shall find thee yet,
And, in thy soft embrace, the past forget
Thus do dream.
