TO ten thousand oil the suffering women
tell us, and think Of the grieis that die un.
spoken! Nature is in earnest when she
makes women and there are women
enough lying in the next churchyard, with
very common place blue slate stones at their
head and feet, for whom it was just as true
that =" all sounds OF lie assumed one tone Of
love-" as for letitia landon, of whom Eliz-
abeth Browning said it but she could give
words to her grief, and they could not.
Will you hear few stanzas Of miney

We count the broken Tyres that rest
Where the sweet wGiling singers slumber, -
But oe'r their silent sisters breast
The wild flo wers who will stoop to number

And noisy Fame IL proud to win them -;
Alas for those that never sing,
But die with their music In them
Nay, grieve not for the dead alone
Whose song has told their hearts sad story, -
Weep for the voiceless, who have known
The cross without the crown Of glory
Not where Lucadian breezes sweep
Der Ssppho's memory haunted billow;
But where the glistening night dews weep
On nameless sorrows churchyard pillow.
