POETRY.
By mas MARY Z. HEWITT.
0'ow,y Downward, with the midnight laden.
T6rou ~ IL sy ~, r. ~ the stsrs
T;n,fJ n,s.: ~. .ns moon looks. like maiden,
Ai"io' giancing through her lattice bars.
high on yonder shore taper be.min.
ui,I aoI.y casement through the night,
Like guiding beacon, pours its light
"Ferryl Hoi'a a voice impatient crieth
Far aeross the waters sluggish sweep
"Ay!' the drowsy ferryman replieth. Is
Muttering, turning slow again to sleep.
And again the voice impetuous ringing,
''FerryT through the darkness pealeth out;
While the bell beside the margin swinging,
+ Changing, mingles with the lonely Shout
Through the darkness now the heavens yelling,
All night long the love-lit beacon gleams;
All night long the bell tolls on unfailing,
While the boatman mutters "Ayp and dreams
Dreams, unmindful, while the night declineth,
How each lsggard hour slowly departs
How fair bride for her true love pineih,
While the river flows between their hearts.
o, ye yearsl roll down beneath your sorrowl
Though, the while, the sluggard Present sleep,
Love and trust still waiting for the morrow,
Hopeful through the gloom their vigil keep.
From the Dublin University Magazine.
MEMORY.
Soft as rays Of sunlight stealing
On the dying day;
Sweet as chimes of low bells pealing
When eve fades away;
Sad as winds at night that moan
Through the heath Ger mountain lone,
Come the thoughts of days now gone
On manhoods memory.
As the sunbeams from the heaven
Hi at eve their light;
As the bells when fades the even
Peal not on the night;
As the night winds cease to sigh
When the rain falls from the sky,
Pass the thoughts of days gone by
From ages memery.
Yet the sunlight in the morning
Forth again sh, ]. break,
And the bells give sweet voiced warning
To the world to wake.
Soon the winds shall freshly breathe
Ger the mountains purple heath;
But the path is lost in Death
He hath no memory.
