THE vIoLoHcELLo.

Larger and more matured, deeper in thought,
Slower in speech and of graver tone,
His ardor softened, as if years had wrought
Wise moods upon him, living all alone,
A calm and phosophic eremite-
Yet at some feeling of remembered things,
Or passion smothered, but not purged quite,
Hark! what depth Of sorrow in those stringsi
See, what storm growls in his angry breast!
Yet list again; his voice no longer means;
The storm hath spent its rage and is at rest.
Strong, self-possessed, the yioloncello' tones;
But yet too oft, like Hamlet, seem to me
A high soul struggling with its destiny
