SONG. 



Whitlier, ah I whfther is my lost lovc straying— 

 Upon what pleasant land beyond the sea f 



Oh ! ye winds now plaj in^, 

 Like airy spirits, round my temples, free, 

 Fly and tell him this from me. 



Tell him, sweet winds, that, in my woman's bosom, 

 My younj love still retains its perfect power, 



Or like the summer blossom 

 Still changing from tlie bi:d to the full-grown flower, 

 Grows with every passing hour. 



Say, and ssy jently, that since we two have parted. 

 How little joy — much sorrow I have known. 



Only not broken hearted. 

 Because I muse upon bright moments gone, 

 And think and dream of him alone. 



Evening scenes in India. — I liave found myself 

 sometimes towards the end of a day's journey in a 

 I green lane festooned with jasmine, and overshadow- 

 I ed with tamarind trees, at the end of which was ; 

 jthe village, with its white pagoda, glittering in the ; 

 setting sun, and peopled with such groups, as are \ 

 seen on antique marbles ; where tlie evening air j 

 i was almost oppressive with perfume, and the 

 I modest sound that broke upon the stillness, was 

 the sweet note of a wood pigeon, or the sudden 

 flight of a flock of green parrots ; where the 

 doves were pecking at my feet, and the squirrels ; j,

 In midst of famine we have found relief.
