Selected Poetry, [ Fam the Rlreiy &y no.] 'TI11 CLOSE OF MAXIMILIANS LIM. Y tYRA. A Ni-xican Co-vent, nouritol ai groy, lleld 1'rince Maximtiliai, the brave, The crowin fron lis brow was shattered axway. And on the lrid tiles fin aligtiish lie lay in band like a poor captive slave. A terrible war, like a whairl-windul has pas edl, Ilis leiins wore scattered and gon, Thle knell of hisi hopes rang out on] the blast, . Sunk ,nvat h Hoc wild waste --buried deep ast the Pas41," And left. but, a skolnion lone. And his sun went down in lia noontide priinoe, llarkly down on his glowing past, Whtile his life on Liberty's wasted shrinor As a royal get to grevoliug swine, ly a veniomllons foo wits cast. 'Twas Iopez who twined his soft, si'imy toll Cipsoe aroiiil tle Emnperor's hacirt, uIsko.1 inl its warmi rays, with-in a stro-rg hold, Wlhnot htleer his life, liho Judas, for geld, Concealing iiis treacherous dart. putriayed in bl- hants oft a mongrel brood, Tilhe .tr eingtli from lis teiples was8 ihos n, The chivalrous Printe of Austritw blood, ,VVhao by his followers fatithfully stood, Lay helpless, deserted and lorn. llegally triid I In vain his protest I They lIhurried him on to tle tomb.: The flasi olt- Ici r muusket4 pluyed round his breast, Ch.Inor ati'l closer (he iultittudo pressed, To witness his iurderous doom. 1Io stoond at fihe stake. wiI h a graceftil mclin, iI i. face was Clouidod with painl ; A vision recaed hisi beaut iful Qcon-, Thm land of' lis love, its valleys of green, Far away, beyond the blue main. Carlott a I lho cried-thou his voice was h ushed-, Unerring, the volley land sped; 0Or inoulntain and Vale tle wild cohoes rushed!, Tio blood fron his veins in purple streams gushed, Tliao peerless Austriain was (lend! Forever dead I but his forohead was star red "With itle love that diwelt inl his soul" it's beauitiul light. can never ho marred, For minstrel Iands its altar will guard, Nr its beamings fall back from the goal. Illis noble virtuos tihe world. will admire Ifi:4 rtrengt h, in lais sorrow suiiblime While Carlotta's name, tle muse will in lspiro To plaintive notes on ie tremnlous lyre, Through tle coming ages of time. Tho tyrant's 1uotto, '"to murder und slay," Retlteels an inglorious stain, N;(or distant far is tho terrible day Whon some avenger, like lnco will repay The wrongs of tlie Emperor slain.
