We cannot tell Il
What is the meaning of its secret spell.
Its charm divine
Is like the murmur Of sounding shell f.
Heard in the pauses of the oceans swell,
In beauty's oft recurring parallel.
Its feeling line,
Artless of rule, yet more than rules Of art
Unconscious pierces; probes with inward smart,
The lovers breast, the patriots swelling heart.
Its music fine
Is such that If the singer break his song
And stop the very spheres seem all a-wrong;
We bid him take his lutte and sweet and strong
Renew his strain.
Oh, singer, sing once more the old refrain
And echo faint its burden still prolong
In memory's chain!
And lest it perish, being only song,
Sing it again,
Again, again! Spectator.

In censuring the administration for

did in the matter of a government for

that Cubans have behaved very diff
