THE COMET.
By 0RORGs LCyr.

Yon car of fire, though yelled BY day,
Along that field of cleaning blue,
When twilight folded earth in gray,
A world wide wonder flew.
Duly in turn each orb of light
From out the darkeniny concave broke
Ewes glowing herald swan II light
And every star a~Oke.
The Lyre restrung it's burning chords;
Streamed from the cross its earliest ray;
Then rose Altar, more sweet than words
On music's soul could say.
They, fr~m old time in course the same
Familiar set. familiar rise;
But what art thou, wild, lovely flame,
Across the startled skies
Mysterious yet as when it burst
Through the vast void of nature hurled
And shook their shrinking hearts at first,
The fathers of the world.
No curious sage.the scroll unsea,s-
Vain quest TO bafflrd science given
It's orbit ages, white it wheels,
The miracle OF heaven.
In natures plan, thy sphere unknown,
Save that no sphere His order M rs
Whose law could guide thy path alone,
In realms beyond the stars.
Gods minister! We know no more
OF thee, thy frame, thy mission still
Than he who watched thy light, OF yore.
On the Chaldean hill.
Yet thus, transcendent from thy blaze
Beams light to pierce this mortal ciod;
Scarcely tool on thee could gaze
And say-there is no God

Which of five snowdrops would the moon
Think whitest if he moon could see
Which of five rosesuds flushed with June
We're re.idest 10 the moth 81 tree
Which of FIVE birds that play one tune
On their soft shining threats may be
Chief singer! Who will answer Inc
Would not the moon know, il around
One snOwdrOp any shadow lay
Would not the rose tree, if the ground
Should let one blossom droop day +!
Does not the one bird take a sound
Into the cloud, when caught away.
Finer than the sounds that stay
Oh. little, quiet boy of mine,
Whose yellow head lies languid here.
Poor yellow head its restless shine
Frightened the butterflies last yeari
Whose pretty hands may intertwiDe
With paer hands unseen but near:
You are my favorite now, fear!
