could not break had bound her to alluring vice
She must be guiltless-she must have an un-

nance and poetry Of his nature was aroused
and waiting until she stood alone peering
through the bars with her soft violet eyes, he
approached, and spoke Of her cruel fate, her in
nocence, her beauty, his sympathy, his faith,
his high regard.
She listened, and her blue eyes opened wider
anu wider with mute astonishment, and the
roses OF her mouth unclosed to the sun of his
sympathy, but no bright bird of speech few
