The Breaking Heart.

Twas morning, and The golden sun
Was through half-drawn curtain streaming
With such a mellow light that one
Might swear from fairy eyes twas beaming
And on a maiden's face ii fell
Half reused from rest and half reclining,
As though il loved to linger well
Upon a cheek so smooth and shining.
One small white hand upheld her brow,
Her arm the yielding pillow pressing,
While DER her neck like stainless snow
Flowed many truant tress caressing.
Her eyes. alas those orbs were hid
Meath her clear fingers soft and taper;
She might have wept hut If she did
Long ere il fell the tear was vapor!
Yet grief that maiden's heart had wrung,
And sorrow bowed her spirits lightness,
While DER her skv impending hung
A cloud that shaded all IT, brightness,
And what had thus The fair girl SIRED?
What ruthless hand her homes been crushing
What burning wrong, or scornfu! word,
The music of her soul then hushing2
Had some stern parents voice severe
Forbade love she could not s,iflel
Or had some heariless one too dear
With her fond feelings dared 10 triflel
No. Twas a grief more deep and cursd
Than fsithless love or Gliding mother:
East might her treaeherOus hustle burst,
And she'd no Iran 10 stiff an0tberi!i!
