BY Tsunysen,


10 night the winds began to rise,
,And'roarsfrou yonder Dropping day:
The last red icaf iss whirled away.
The rocks are blown about tho skiss;
The forest cracked, the wstss1Icurled, J,
ne cattle huddiet on the LED !
And wildly dashed on tower Ind tree
The sunbesm strikes dong the world:
And but for fshsics, %hioh>avsr
Ths. sll thy motions gently pass
Athwart ! plane Of molten glass,
dscarcs could brook the strain and atis
That makes the barren branches loud
And bit for fear II is not so,
The wild unrest that lives in woe
Would dots and pore. on yondsr cloud
That rises upward always higher,
And onward drags lahoring BREAST
And topples round the dreasy west,
A locming bastion fringed with FIRE.
