CHARLES LAMBS WARNING.

The waters have gone over me. But out
of the black depths, could be heard, !
would cry out to all those who have not set
foot in the perilous food. Could the youth
to whom the favor of bis first wine is as de.
licious as the opening scenes Of life, or the
entering apon some newly. discovered paradise
look into my desolation and be made to un.
derstand what dreary thing it is when man
shall find himself going down precipice with
open eyes and passive will-to see his de.
struction and have no power to stop it, and yet
feel it emanatirg from himself; to see all good
ness emptied out of him, and yet not able to
forget q time when it was otherwise to bear
about the piteous spectacle of his own ruin
could he see my fevered eye, feverish with the
last nights drinking, and feverishly looking fol
to nights repetition of the folly; could he bui
feel the body OF the death out of which cry
hourly with feebler outcry, to be delivered
it were enough to make him dash the spsrk
ling beverage to the earth in all the pride ol
its mantling temptations
