THE WAND OF FATE.

The wand Of fate raps at the door,
OF every man but once-no more.
To each a fortune, we are told,
She brings in silver or in gold
But il her call be then unheard,
She passes on without a we'd,
And never more returns that way,
But leaves the man misfortune's prey.
A poet olce, ,rapt in a spell,
Was weaving verses in a dell.
A princess robed in royal state
Rode down that way the hour was late.
His numbers sweet her heart approyed,
Because he sang Of things she loved.
Come hither bard; in open air,
A seat in my proud chariot share.
My fathers palace is home
For genius; all that choose to come"
She said. mot SC" t,e hard replied,
Ambition now sits by my side.
cannot now desert my dell
And dissipate the rapturous spell.
My coming verse is big with fame;
Iwll fllthewOrld withmy great name. -
The chariot wheels then whirled along
No more the princess heard the song.
The printer said the verse was printed;
But no one ever heard it limited.
The poets verse was never read;
The poet died for want of bread.
The wand Of fate raps at the door
of every man but once-no more. :
