I sang in olden times; That broken is the harp- ofyore, And-vanished are its notes sublime. Ah! ,cold they lead writhinamy vtoilr The saddened numbers swelling there ; The bitter pangs that spurn control, And fill my being with despair; - They would not wonder that .my blarp Lies broken now bepeath my feetj Or that my grief should' rea er shgr, The notes thabonce were lowand ~ t.i But, ahli the world may never sweep The chords that thrill withln my heart; Its music lies too still and deep It shimbers, but can ne'er depart. Coul I buht dip i magic quill !n sourpes ~fPromethean fire, . Then Would Tweave a burni gthrjll SIn every touch I gave mf lyre. But now, "mid its broken strings, There lingeronly notes of woe; My had no longer from it brings The music of the Long-ago. I onoeat pleastnre'altar knelt Yes,'knelt.ani drank its richest wine ; For then my heat bhad never felt The shadow of a darker shrine. I ne'er had known the' maddening power Of love-my soul was then at rest-- My heart was like i a buddingflower, That.nursed a:si;tibeam ,in its breast. But now, alas I that'cloada should rise, Should darkeh o'er so fitr a'sky; Should fill a gladsome heart with sighs, T :hat once knew nought of tear or sigh. I loved-there knrbtelbre fly shrine, A ~ ipgI was praud to win; - Whose brow wore every east divine- The stamp of virtue shrined within. We wedded-words grow weak and faint To color scenes so wildly bright; Dark pictures art can always paint, Who can portray a ray oflirhtt But swihftly, fled the dream of joy, And sad is its deserted throna i P. Fata came, alqs! to blfht-to destroy~ , We purted--I wasloft alone. Yes; parted, that my love might iay; Devotion on his country's shrine, While troubled shadowsdarkly play Around this lonly heart of mine. To think of moments past and bright, But make;s my sadness deoper now; Tis like'tbf.orrijing's robe of light Beside the midnight's eBble brow. Then wonder not that I no more My harp ih rapture wildly sweep.; The joy that woke its tones before, Now slumbers in a dreamless sleep. BMY ,M.OTB-R, It was a grand day in 'the old chivalric time; the .ine circled round the board in a noble hall, and the sculptured wal ralg with sentiment anid song. The lty ofeiesh knight's heart was pledged aloud by name, and many a. syllable significant .f loveli nss had been uttered, until it came to St. L'on's turwheu, lifting the sparkling cup on high, "I drinBk to ne, he said, " Whose image may never depart, Deep araven on this grateful heart Till memory is dead; "To one whose love for me shall last When ligrrhter passions long'~vo passed, T o holy 'tis and true . Toone whose love hath lonver dwelt More deeply fixed, more keenly felt, Than any pledged to you." Each mbst upetared at the word, And laid a hand upon ,his sword, With flurry flashing.eye; And 'tan!eysaid : "We crave the name, Proud knight, ofthis most peerless dame, 'Whose love you count so lig~" St. Loon paused,as if he would ' Not breathe her name in careless mood 'Thns lightly to another; Then bent his noble hea;d as though To give thdbt word the reverance dut, And gently said: " My !4thet !'
