NEW WSLETS.

Blithe-hearted as the May.
Who plucked the Towering climber
Along the river-way:
II was the ferrymans daughter.
With gypsy rose and tan,
Who ferried DER the water
This straying minstrel-man.
Her hair had purple tintings
Above her sea-shell ear;
Her eyes had starry glintngs.
Her laugh was lyric clear.
He listened and he fingered
(Iiis tryst was one with Fate"C
Till eve. the fairy-hngercd
Had shut days sunset gate.
Thus oft they met thereafter.
AT last no more 10 part.
For love (or was IL laughter?)
Had shared the rhymer's heart
And now upon life's ocean
The twain together float;
He's captain---thats his notion!
But she still steers the boat!
