ACCIDENTALS.

I'm glad when 1 am happy and happy when m
glad,
But thus the much more weary whenever I am
sad.
NV songs a very woeful contradiction OF tuno
That trillingly and tremblingly die ever much
too soon.
Ety Joys are throned forever in the eden love OF
bliss
That burst through their abounding with en-
cumbrances like this.
The swelling wave upheavals that enlengthen
out my thread
Are born betimes in hopes deferred that ever
moro are dead. .
The blight that thus enshrouding wields me
thus enraptured sway
Is lost in the deep darkness that precedes the
dawn of day.
The ftful, feeting fancies fligreed to suit their
kind
Is quilted amidst the anxious inclination OF
the mind.
The wOof and warp abstrectedly interchanged
to degree
Inclines the understanding to the chaos Of
debris.
Thus are the accidentals in the weather vane OF
life
That strengthen to a measure the sublimity OF
strife,
And teach us much for nothing save the sum
we have to pay,
Which far exceeds the profits in the hope that's
flown away.
Though ever watchful, careful Of the whirlpoois
that are past.
We are nevertheless drifting in the presents
ceaseless grasp.
