Again in loneliness, and yet, some joy I've felt to-day: the heavens were not cloudless, But the winds hlew with all their eloquence; And, in their wild capricious mood, they drove The vapoury giants on: and some did seem Like vessels floating through the air, and some Like chariots hy winged coursiers drawn j others Formed columns in the blue expanse; their hues So beautiful! so magnificent, grand, Their shape, they seemed the porticos to heaven.

Such moments are divine; they pay for years Of care: but, like the joys that here are given, They 're transient beams, the stars of memory's scenes, - ., In life's dark night.

The lamp of hope!?Thus I thought, while seated On the rock's projecting arm, thus I thought: And, from my soul's recesses rose, a voice That said, such things could be, if I were not Unworthy of my native land.?It said, ? The Cicero of my breast it seemed, ?the lamp That shone within thy mind, was fed with oil, .
