The Quaker Coquette.
Dear, coy coquette! but once we met
But once, and yet?'twas once too often!
Plunged uniiwnren in silvery snares
A All vain my prnycra her heart to soften :
Yet seemed no true her eyes of blue.
Veined lids and longest lashes under,
.Good angels dwelt therein, I felt,
And could have knelt in reverent wonder.
Poor heart, alas! what eje could pa*?
The auburn i. ass of curls carousing
jller pure u hit? brow?made regal now

\Wit|) l.;rlui d^d.ued, tluvv juii$!.t bo wooed,
But nil, coy p.rudc! she will not let ua!
No jewel* deck her radiant neck ?
What pearl would reck its hue to rival1
A pin of gold?the fashion old?
A ribhon fold, or Home micIi trill,:,.

In dark relief, sets off the whiteness
Of all the brttit* not veiled iud prcst
Beneath her collar's ,Quaker lightce#" !
And milk white rubes o'e/ snowier globes,
As Roman maids are drawn by (Jibbon,
' With classic taste are gently braced
Around her waist beneath a ribbon ;
And thence unrolled in billowy fold,
I'rofuso and hold?a queenly carriage !
They half reveal and half conceal
What knights might kneel to wo in marI

blotted the note book as it fell. I now
call upon tbe guilty one to stand up.'
There whs still the nine silence all
round.
The master sighed, for be loved hi* lit
tie scholar* *erv niurh ; it grieved hnn
to pun'tli them ; but be knew that these
young souls had bceli entrusted to hi*
care by thu Saviour, to teach them his
w?y, hi d to guide tbelli in the path
which lead* to life ; and while his heart
was grieved at the thought that he must
at any rust find out the offender and punish
l.iin, especial y a* hi* otaiiinacy threw
suspicion on Ine tomp tnions, the master,
faithful to his duly, resolved not to act
rashly.
lie now slowly left his desk, and stau
ding iu front of the forms where his scho
1 his were sealed, he said, *1 do not like
tell-tales ; it is a proof of a very had
spirit when a boy discloses bis scln>ol fal
lows' fault* ; hut it is necessary for the
pootf?and he laid a stress on the word,
?Mor 11 re <jo>xi of the offender, that 1
i,)iouli' know who lie is. Now, I do not
*v?nt to say It is such and such an one,
b it I desire you a!l, beginning with the
first division, to leave this room, and lu
g<> into the pa*s ge, with the exception
of the one <<iuong you who is guilty.'
Thwt then fagau In file off. One, two,
