 Luxuriant irum the bruise anew. 



/. W. Eattburne. 



SENTIMENT. 



I said to Sorrow's awful storm, 



That beat against my breast, 

 Rage on thou maysf destroy this form, 



And lay it low at rest ; 

 Yet still, tlir spirit that now brooks 



Thy tempest riiging high, 

 Undaunted, 011 its fury looks 



Witli steadfast eye 



I said to Penury's meagre train, 



Come on your threats I brave, 

 My last poor life-drop you may drain, 



And crush IMC to tlir jrrave; 

 Yet still, the spirit that endures, 



Shall mock your force the while, 

 And meet each cold, cold grasp of youn 

 With bitter smile. 



I said to cold Neglect and Scorn, 



Pass on I heed you not ; 

 Ye may pursue me till my form 



And being are forgot ; 

 Yet still, the spirit which you see 



Undaunted by your wiles, 

 Draws from its own nobility 



Its high-born smiles.
