Had turned to diamonds every one.

Which hath no need of moon or sun :.
Then trust His grace who through the night

A DRINKING SONG.

Come. old friend, sit down and listen
From the pitcher placed between US,
How the waters laugh and glisteu
In the heaa of old Silenus
tOldSIlenus. bloated, drunken,
Led by his iDe5riate satyrs
tOn his breast his head is sunken,
1VacantlY he leers and chatters.
eRonnd about him fair Bacehantes,
Bearing cymbals, flutes and thyrses,
wild from Naxan groves, or Zante's
Vineyards, sing delrius verses.
Thus he won, through all TIE nations,
Bloodless victories, and the farmer
Bore, as trophies and oblations,
Vines for banners, ploWs for armor'
Judged by no o'er-zealous rigor,
Much this mystic throng expresses
sBaccbus was the type OF Vlgor,
And Siienus OF excuses.
These are ancient ethnic revels
OF a faith long since fOrsaken;
Now the satyrs changed to devils,
Brighten mortals wine-o' ertaken.
Now TO rivulets from the mountains
Point the rods OF fortune tellers .
81, Youth perpetual dwells in fountains,
Not In TASKS ana. casks and cellars .
Claudius, tho ugh he sang of flagons,
And huge tankards filled with Rhenish,
Fl From that fiery blood of dragons
Never would his own replenish.

Bacchus In the Tuscan valleys,
Never drank the wine he Wanted
In his dithyrambic sallies' ~. 4l vg

POETRY.
A Lost Chord.

Seated, one day at the organ,
was weary and ill at ease;
My fingers wandering idly
Over the solemn keys.
Knowing not what l was playing, bep.
Nor the things I was dreaming '
sounded a cho,d of music nent
That thrilled like great
Filling the crimson twilight
With rbe soul of an anger 5 psalm,
IL law on my fevered spirit
Tbe touch OF holy calm,
ouietipg pain and sorrow.
Like Love o'ercoming strife,
II seemed a harmonious echo
From our discordant life.
Sinking perplexing meanings
In perfect hush of peace,
And trembling away into silence,
AS il it were loath to cease.
Seeking, but seeking vainly,
For that one lost chord divine,
Viii h came into the soul of the organ
And entered into mine,-
Trusting that deaths dim angel
May awake that chord again,
know that the hosts OF Heaven
Shall return me the grand Amen.
