Gentle Sheperd, pity me
While in faith / look to thoe:
Weak and powerless l am,
Save-oh save thy little lamb
Keep me safe from every harm,
With thy own almighty arm.
When the storms Of life arise
When the flock in terror flies,
Gentle Shcperd then be near,
Keep me from those ! fear;
Then while powerlCas ! am,
Save-oh save thy little lamb.
When the tempter we behold
When he seeks the peaceful fold
Ere by sin be distressed,
Lead me to some place of rest
Thus, ON Lord, where'er ! am,
Love and save thy little lamb

THE NEW M0WN HAY.
BY PARK BENJAMIN.

Talk not to me Of Southern bowers,
Of oders breathed from tropic flowers,
Ofspice-treeS after rain;
But of those sweets that freely flow
When June's fond breezes stir the low
Grass heaped upon the plain.
This morning stood the verdant spears,
All wet with diamond dews-the tears
By Night serenely shed;
This evening, like an army Slain,
They cumber the pacific plain
With their fast fading dead.
And where they fell and all around
Such perfumes in the air abound,
AS if long hidden hives
Or sudden richness were unsealed,
When on the freshly trodden field
They yielded up their lives.
In idle mood l love to pass,
These ruins of the crowded grass;
Or listlesslv to lie,
1nhaing the delicious scents,
Crushed from these downcast verdurou!
tents,
Beneath the sunset sky.
1t is pure delight, which they
Who dwell in cities, far away
From rural scenes SO fair,
Can never know in lighted rooms,
Pervaded by exotic blooms
This taste Of natural air
This air, so softened by the breath
EXhaled and waited from the death
OF herbs that simply bloom,
And, scarcely noted, like the best
Dear friend, with whom this world is blest,
Await the common DOOM
And leave behind such sweet regret
AS in our hearts is living yet,
Though heroes pass away
Talk not to me of Southern bowers,
Or odors breathed from tropic flowers,
But Of the new mown hay
