.Behsld this ruin, twas a skull

This nsrros cell xa< LIES retreat.

what beanteoas visions died this spot.
What dreams u pleasure lo1g forgot;
Nor hope. nor love. nor Joy. nor fear
Have left no trace Of record here
Beneath this mouldering canopy
Once zhane the bright and busy eye;
But start not az the dismal void
II social love that eye emploYesi;
II with nc l8sless hires Il cleaned,
But through the dew Of kindness
besmed.
That eye shall DO forever bright
When stars and suns have lost their
light.
siIefe In this silent cavern hung
The ready. swift and tuneful tongue;
II falschood's honey Is disdained.
And whore IL could not praise WIS
chained:
10 bold In virtues cause IL spoke.
Yet gentle concord never broke.
That tuneful tongue shall plead for
thee
When death unveils eternity
The above sad, though beautiful sen
timent portrays q ruin wrought doubt

poisons and unskilled efforts Of medi-
cine and ignorance OF the divine gift
that heals without wounding and re-
stores without injury-electricity. This
mysterious. though beneiicent influence.

countless ruins like those so eloquently
described above. Aud many skull,
