OCTOBER,
A SONNET ~ BRYANT.

Ay, thou art welcome, heavens delicious breath,
When woods begin to wear the crimson leaf,
And suns grow meek, and the meek sons grow
brief,
And the year smiles as It draws near its death,
Wind Of the sunny south ! oh still delay
In the gay woods and the golden air,
Like to good old age released from care,
Journeying, in long serenity, away
In such bright, late quiet, would that
Might wear out life like the mild bowers and
BROOKS,
AID, dearer yet the sunshine of kind looks,
And music ofkind voices ever nigh;
And when my last sand twinkled in the glass,
Pass silently from men. rs thou dost pass.

The day he'll meier forget,
She thought the muslin dearer
Than any she'd seen yet:

The silks and satins toss,

And nodded at the boss.
