The spring had now set in ifi all -i glory. Oh! season of enchangment! Season of delicious dreams ! Fresh as ti .matin dew-drops on thy fragrant flower, ate the recollections thou dost renew, the sweet recollections thdu dost still'awi ken. Even as thou biddest the frost-boun earth to break the gloomy bondage of 'Wit ter, and arfay herself in smiling green the sea- and sapless branch to put fort 'once ighib buds of prornise, so dostAho .fill the beatts whose hopes are blightet and seem dead, with vague and tender at pirations-with.assurances of, some swee desire yet to be realized, and linked, fnc unto th. 'ding and imperfect bliss of thi world, to the perfect beauty, and love, an harmony of the next. Come, then thol genial influence, shed upon my soul th; healing balm :-steep my 1enses in th, true love of that eternal beauty, and Oer feet love which I see mirrored upon thi face of this natural vorld :-teach tre.t discard those vain hopes, those foolis longings, which were want 'to haunt m, spirit at the sweet even-tide, when; kom panioned by the- sulitary whipp'oorwill and the ;iale stur that listened to her wail I dre'amt thie yduthfudl dreanms of earthlj bliss, too pure alas!-and nrever to be ei tracted out of the drops of mortal al'ec tions:-melt down these eyes -do mor into useless tears, distilled from the sici and wearied heart; but quicken in me i new sense to feel alone the divinity of,,h2 presene, that peacefully and cheerfully may sit me down beneath the late shunne( oak, whose hoarv moss-beard, waved b3 the solemn breeze, has so often mingle( its sighs with my repinings, and saddet no more to think how changeless are thes olden scenes-how oppressive with forme asbociatiuns this same melody of the.feath ered-while I have been changed ; -whil cbbrd after chord of the music whicl once played about my boyish heart h'a sna'pped, and the celian lyre itself beet crushed by the rough winds of- reality. Hail ..bir 1p '' Inio the simnple-mi:ned' happy, such fCesh ness,- and fullness, as gentle showers brinj 'udto' even flowing brooks. The sorrow ful, and self-exiled from the world, repos upon thy bosom, drawing fiom it the mill of love: they are babes of nature, and ii thee they know their nurse. But sterne spirits; and manlier intellects, aspire t mingle with thy godhead, and seek fron thee a bolder inspiration. The poet *rap himself up in thy etherial mantle, ani cheats the world's vanity and delusioi with ideal fornis of beauty and perfection His creative power is as boundless a! thine : his being is'of a different order fron that of common mortals; lie triumph over the mocking past ; it is unto him bu as the " baseless fabric of a dream;" it ai.guish silly as that of the night-mare not bread of the infirm' ind, but uecessa rily caused by the floul vapors of a rebel lious stomach, and subject always to th test of reason: Ay-even as the den leaves of autumb' unto thee. so is the pas unto him: for out of its pu;refaction 6 extracts a principle of vitality,- and create beauty and freshness, and syminetley, ou of desolation, and rottenness, and confu sion. rhe philsopher,-the man of ac tion,-the tnrn of common sense,-an; common avocations, dares to eneounte thee in all thy plenitude of ravishing an, volunptuous charms, in the most secre chamiber of thy handumaid nature, wvithot the fear of being seduced into dreams lux ury and lethargic melancholy, by thy ini effable enchantment; and grave science and holy contemplation, walk handi hand' with thee in' puke c'omninnion, intet on'thotij~hts that pass'the pale of self. I the melody of thy voice they recognise th music of the spheres, and not the muourn ful echo of some sickly sentiment, or re suscitated association. ' Life is shOi-t!"-hear the man of at tibnathe~man' of business-the man< common sense exclaim ; and, as' the lio shakes the dew-drop from his mtane, thti shakes he off from the mind the nxiotm vapors that wvould settle onr it, and bounc upon'big'accustomed path'rejoicitg in hl coscou strength. "* Life is short-lo thapring-tide ofnature: it is the time creatton-of busy action:' the earth It boors, grass' shoots, flowers spring, th bee hastens forth, the ant toils:' all is ret olent of happiness-of the happiness motion-of provident exertion."
