OLD CHAOS.

In vain, in Vain-the all composing hour
Reaistless falls; the Muse obeys the power.
She comes she comes the sable throne behold
OF night primeval, and Of Chaos old
Before her Fancys gilded clouds decay
And all It's varying rainbows die away.
Wit shoots in vain its momentary fres
The meteor drops and in a dash expires.
Al one by one, at dread Medea's strain,
The SlckeAlng stars fade off tn ethereal plain
As ArEus' eyes by Hermes' wand opprcst,
Clo5d one by one to everlasting rest
Thus at her felt approach, and secret might
Art afleE art goes out and all is night
See skulking Truth to her old cavern fed,
Mountains OF casuistry heap'd DER her head
Philosophy, that leand on Heaven before,
Ehrinks to her second cause and is no more.
Physlc Of Metaphysic begs defence,
And MetAphysic calls for aid on sensel
See Mystery to Mathematics fly
In vain they gaze, turn glddy, rave, and die.
Religion, blushing wells her sacred fires,
And unaWOres Morality expires
Nor public fame, nor private, dares to shine
Nor human spark is left, nor glimpse divine!
Lo thy dread empire, Chaosl is restored;
Light dies before thy uncreating word;
Thy hand, great Anarch lets the curtain fall
And universal darkness buries all.
Alexander Popt
