tn A T VOICE j..
BY CLARA LINDEN.

A voice was heard among the Appanines,
Ii echoed from the cleud wrapped mountains
breast,
To the green valleys, where, mid custriug vines,
Fond spirits lowered in Wild unrest.
LET there be Italy :" it said, and 10.
radient, d. ep, and v:viryins glow
Cleaned o'er that ch os, of Opprt ssion born,
And Italy arose, bright as the star of morn
The nations heard the voice. and fstnnag. caught
The emeRous clash, the tumult and the low,
Deep sound of mighty sounderings, and the flow
The liquid flow, OF kindred elements
All gliding into "unity." and thence
Into beau eous fabric, such as CLEANS,
Before the patriots eyes in dreams.
They heard, and they responded then rang out
O'cr hills and waters one exultant shout
OF widest joy. as, OF earth's natal day,
Angels and sphere, joined in their matin lay.
Over the new creation. Twas al hour
For Kings to learn the secret of the power.
Now. woe TO him who dares to increase the yoke
On the bowed neck, s.nce that strong voice hath
spoke
That veice had whispered unto man -" Thou art
free -
Ere he had learned to lisp loved liberty:
And when he framed its accents, twas strain
OF sweetest m sic, and the glad refrain
Was caught by moaning millions, and rehearsed
In many tongues, and in as miny cursed
By kingly lips that trem5led in their ire
To know that freedoms strains could thus inspire.
A subject, that dumb foot,tool ar ise
In storms of majesty, and language wise.
Deducing II ON his strain philosophy
That subjects are, AMI rulers not, free
That God has coaleS ced with man to rive
His letters, ard that ulers shall not live
Till subjects have created them. and stood
The only jud res OF whats true and good
Madly that unreleuting voice pursued
Its victim. tyranny, that, to elude
owiit vengeance, hed 10 Its last citadel
OF fright divine 4" and then the monster fell
Crushed crowns and shivered scepteIs MARX the
Through the fair earth where that dark route doth
lay,
As. from It, refuge to Its waiting grave.
Ii He'd as swiftly wind chased wave.
What was the magic of these whispering tones,
thrones,
zen the mJuntlin forests wrthe and quake
When boarded tempest Ger taem Wildly break I
w Wu.It tIis odfi. Ia, that thus inc.te
lLlliis millions 20 clam tai as rights
