A POET'S nYMN.

Lord, Thou hast ;';;\"<>11 mr a cellWherein to dwell,

;\ little house, whose hu III bl« roofls weather-proof;

l 'nder the spars of which llicBoth soft and dry;

\\'here Thou my chamber for to wardHast set a 'GuarJ

UJ ha rmless thoughts, 1.0watch ami keel'M.l" while I sleep.

Low is my porch, as is my Fail',Both void of state;

And yet the threshold of my doorIs worn by the poor,

Who thither come and freely getGood words or meat:

Like as my parlour, so my hallAnd kitchen's small:

A little buttery, and thereinA little bin,

Which keeps my little loaf of breadUn chipped, unsped,

Some bri ttle sticks of thurn or briarMake me a fire

Close by whose living coal 1 sitAnd glow like it,

All these, and better thuu dost sendMe, to this end,

Tha t J should render, for my part,A thankful beart::

Which, fired with incense, 1 resign,As wholly Thine;

But the acceptance, that must he,My Christ, by Thee,

THE SANDMAN.

The roses in the moonlight are sleeping long agoAnd all the slender lilies sway lightly to and froAnd as the gentle breeze goes by, the waving poplars

sigh,Lullaby-sleep my baby, sleep, my baby, sleep,

The birds that sing 50 sweetly by now have gone torest

And each is safely sleeping within its leafy nest.The cricket chirrups evermore behind the old barn

door.Lullahy=--slecp lily ba hv, sleep. my baby, sleep.

Now softly coni('S the sandman and through eachwindow 1)f:'('ps

To S(,e that "'I"<'rI halvv is safe alld soundly sh·e]!s.1 I children wide awake Itl' spies, Ill' scatters sand 111JUIl

their eves.Lullaby-o-slccp my baby, sleep, my baby, sleep.

(;uud sandman, go your \I'a)' sir, for my heart'streasure lies

Asleep, and fast are closed those merr y laughing eyesThat, when the 11101'11in;;breaks, shall be a light and

jay to me!Lullaby-i-slccp Illy baby, sleep, Ill)' baby, sleep.

llEV()N, () llE\'()N, IN WIND .\]\1]) H.\IN.I)r"ke in tiu- North SI''' c:riJllly l'r'J\dill,~,·.treading his dear J(c\"l'ngc's deck,\Vatch-'d with the sea-dugs round him gru\\·JjIl~";,(;,t1lcons drifting' wreck by wreck... Fet.tcr and Faith for England's neck,I.;"ggot and Father, Saint and chain,Yonder the Devil and all go howling,Devon, 0 DCVOIl, in wind and rain! ...Irrako at the last all Nombre lying,I\lluwing the night that toward him crept,Gavc to the sea-dogs round him cryingThis fur a sign before he slept :--.. Pride of the West l what Devon hath keptDevon shall keep on tide or main;Call to the storm and drive them flying,Devon, 0 Devon, in wind and rain! ..

Valeur of England gaunt and whitening,Far in a South-land brought to bay,Locked in a death-grip all day tight'ning,Waited the end in twilight gray.Battle and storm and the sea-dog's way!Drake from his long rest turned again,Victory lit thy steel, with lightning,Devon, 0 Devon, in wind and rain!

THE "OLD SlJPEl{B."TII(:' wnul was rising easterly, the morning sky was blueThe Straits be Iore us opened wide and her;We Iookd towards the Admiral, where high the

Peter flew.And all our hearts were dancing like the sea.The French arc gonc to Martinique with four and

twenty sail,The" ora Superb" is old and foul and sluw ;But the French are gone to Martinique, and Nelson's

all the trail,And where he goes the" Old Superb" must go.So Westward ho! for Trinidad, and Eastward ho !

for Spain,And" Ship ahoy! " a hundred times a day;Round the world if need be, and round the world againWith a lame duck lagging all the way.The" Old Superb" was barnacled and green as grass

below,Her sticks were only fit for stirring grog;The pride of all her midshipmen was silent long ago,And long ago they ceased to heave the log.Four year out from home she was, and ne'er a week in

port,And nothing save the gUlls aboard her bright;HuL Capta.in Keats he knew the same, and swore tv

share the sport,For he never yet carne in too late lu Jight.So Westward J,O ! etc.H Now "P, my lads," the Captain cried, .. Ior sure the

case wen' bardIf long-pst out \\l'r<' lirst to Ia ll hehiJld ;Alolt, aloft witl: studding-sails, and lash them ou the

yard,For night and dav the Trades arc drivina bliud ."Su all day lUllg and all <lay long behind-the fleet we

crept,And how we fretted none but Nelson guessed;But every night the" Old Superb," she sailed while

others slept,Till we ran the' French to earth with all the rest.o 'twas Westward hu ! etc.
