“ O clear and shining Light!
O Star, which led to Him, whose love
Brought down man's ransom free,
Where art thou? Midst the host above,
May we still gaze on thee?
In heaven thou art not set,
Thy rays earth may not dim! ”

“ STANZAS.—HE NEVER SMIL'D AGAIN.
- - -"Henry I. (after the loss of Prince William) entertained hopes, for three days, that his son had put into some distant port of England; but when certain intelligence of the calamity was brought him, he fainted away; and it was remarked, that he never afterwards was seen to smile, nor ever recovered his wonted cheerfulness."—Hume.
The bark that held a Prince went down,
The sweeping waves roll'd on;
And what was England's glorious crown
To him that wept a Son?
He lived—for life may long be borne
Ere sorrow break its chain! ”
