AN HOUR or PEACE.
Dv THOMAS MOORE.


How Gala, how beautiful comes on
The stilly hour when storms are gone!
Whea warrior winds have died away,
And clouds beneath the glaacinr ray
Melt of, and leave the land and sea
Sleeping in bright tranquility
Fresh as if day again were born,
Again upon the lap Of morn!
When the light blossoms, rudely torn
And scattered at the whirlwind's will.
Hang floating in the pure air sill,
Filling il with precions balm,
In gratitude for This sweet calm;
And every drep the thunder showers
Have left upon the grass and flowers,
Sparkies. as ,twere that lightning gem
Whose liquid fame Is born Of them !

BY CHARLES SWAIN.
Where the golden hand of morn n
Touches light the singing fountain,
There a maiden. lowly born.
Guides her flock along the mountain =
Bashful as the IA IN, and feet,
She invests the world with beauty
Simple grace, and manners sweet,
Dignity her humble duty.
Sudden light half wreathed the earth,
ROBBED the fields and flowers in gladness-
New delights, too deep for mirth
Geu1le griefs, TOO sweet for sadness
Who this sudden charm hath wrought -
Sen; this fow Of bright revealinrs p
Mind. that springs with Joyous thoughts
Heart, that glows with heavenly feelings.
Surely, It's some angel strayed,
Not shepherds daughter solely,
Who hath earth like heaven arrayed,
Ia light and love so holy
On. when stars, like drops Of pearl,
Gliminer DER the singing water,
There I'll WOO my mountain girl,
Proudly wed the Shepherds Daughter.
