Pleasant shall be thy way where meckly bows
The shutting flower, and darkling waters pass,
And where the o'er5hadowing branches sweep

Like thy pure breath, into the vast unknown,

And softly part his curtains to allow

Ave Maria DER the earth and sea,
That heayenliest hour of heaven is worthiost thee
Ave Maria blessed be the hour
The time, the cline, the spot, where ! so Oft
Have felt that moment in its fullest power
Sink Ger the earth so beautiful and so soft,
While swung the deep bell in the distant tower
Or the faint dying day hymn stole aloft,
And not breath crept through the rosy air,
And yet the forest leaves seemed stirred with prayer
Ave Maria I'll. the hour of PRAYER
Ave Maria tits the hour of love

Look up to thine and to thy Sons above

Those downcast ewes beneath The Almighty dove

That painting is no idol,-'tis too like.

Which bounds Ravenna's immemoral wood,
Rooted where once the Adrian wave flowed DER

Evergreen forest; which Boccaceio's lore
And Dryden's lay made haunted ground to me-
How have loved the ght hour and thee
The shrill ccalas, people OF the pine,
Making their summer lives one eeascless song,
W ere the sole echoes, save my steed's and mine,
And yesper bells that rose the boughs along;
The spectre huntsman of Onesti's line
His hclldogs, and their chase, and the fair throng
Which learned from this example not to fly
From true lover,-shadowed my minds eye
iIesperus thou bringest all good things
Home to the weary, to the hungry cheer
70 the young bird the parents brooding wings
The welcome stall to the o'erlabored steer;
Whate'er of peace about our heartstone clings,
Whateer our household gods protect OF dear,
Are gathered round US by thy look of rest;
Thou bringst the child, too, the mothers breast.
Soft hour which wakes the wish and melts the
heart
OF those who sail the seas, on the first day
When they from their sweet friends are torn apart:
Or ills with love the pilgrim on his way,
As the far bell OF vesper makes him start
Seeming to weep the dying days decay
Is this fancy which reason scornsf
An surely nothing dies but something mourns.
