Throughout Bembibre's vale the moon Is low,
The merry nightingale is blithe witch song,
And the dark waters of the Mimic flow,
Telleno's verdant, vne-clad base along.
The wind is soft, and balmy zephyrs breathe
A thousand diff'rent odors on the air,
And countless howrets richest boquets weave,
For ev'ry hill vernal carpet rare.
The timid deer oft leaves his wild abode
To bronze upon the herbage Of the plain,
Where motherearth groans meath heavy load
or richest grass and waving golden grain
Far as the human eye can scan, the vale
lsbounded by one lofty mountain range,
Whose craggy cliffs could thunder many tale
Ere Spain had undergonesuch savagechange
The dark, dim trees, and thickly clustering
Hide the deep ravines in one verdant mass,
And green convolvulus in festoon twines
outrageous foliage that o'erhangs each
pass
Then far away, along the pale blue sky,
Castilan mountains rear their lofty heads
And down their sides sweet streamlets muir
mrng, sign,
Soft music DER their purling, pebbly beds.

0'erlooking many wildwood scene,
Like dim spectre gazing DER the lands,
Where fought had many bloody battle

Around his head his cowl is drawn,
To guard against the chilly air.
And far across the spreading lawn
He gazes with vacant stare.

or some dim object far away,
That seeming melts in shadows grey
Then looking round as to eschew,
What some might call Il watchful eye,
That might into his conduct pry;
Then steslthfully, with guarded tread
He took path that winding led
With many a circuit round the hill,
That leads across ripping rill,

Emerging from the wildwood shade,
Alfonso hurried DER the plain
His eyes is strained across the glade,
Nor looks he homeward back again. '
psrb,ns a bappv Thought NAV raise
A thrill of bliss within his heart
psrbaps his tongue NAV utter praise.
Or soma loud token heedless start
From his warm bosom, where the soul
Its torrid fire, or worse than flame
When passions brook no stern control,
And virtue only lives in name.
