TO MARY. q
O thoua beautiful: so did deem,
When first thy maiden charms my sight did bless,
Aud often DER my memory like asdream, .
Steals the sweet vision of thy loyeliness. \
Thou art beautiful as the azure skies,
When o'er the broad expanse the starry trains e
Like Heavens bright jewelry, in splendor lies,
And sphery music wakes in dulcet strain. :.
Thou art beautiful as summer eve
When summer roses are in richest bloom,
And clustering woodbines fasry bowers weave,
And dark magnolias shed their sweet perfume.
Thou art beautiful as bright spring morn,
When through the woodlands rings the choral lay,
And bright-eyed flowers peep from the velvet lawn
To cheer the russet maiden on her way.
Thou art beautiful as she was Of yore,-
The seaborn Venus-daughter Of the wave
Whose silken fetterS Godlike captors wore,
Yet wo,ed the bondage for the bliss it gave.
Thou art beautiful as that 6ckfe queen
For whose dear sake the walls Of Troy fell,
Yetnot till deeds heroic mark the scene
And Hector's arms the naughty foe repel!
Thou art beautiful as the deep blue sea,
When stars press their bright cheeks to its kissing
'7s waves, r.. ~
And mermaid music wakens merrily, s.
From pearly shells and gem bright coral caves
Thou art beautiful yes, almost divine
Is. the soft music Of thy speaking face,
Where the, pure lineaments of thy soul doth shine
In mellow splendor, yet with witching grace
O thou art beautiful as angels dreams,
Upon Sabbath morning in the skies,
When round their couch celestial radiance beams
Aud heavenly visions in their fancies rise.
