Habitual court, and every morn and night

Light up pure incense at the holy shrine,

And take another step toward heaven and God.

your horse!

And in such eyes as ours appear not faults;

But where thou art not known, why there they show
Something too liberal.

Shall wring some bright truth from its prism; the

And scattered papers, and unfinished scrawl.

Having no changeful mood, earnest in all,
Unvarying as the needle and as true.

41.

Through the world you break your way,
With jest, and laugh, and lightsome lay.

SIMMS.

TAYLOR-Edwin the Fair.

A spirit that on life's rough sea

Loves to have your sails filled with a lusty wind,
Even 'till your sail-yards tremble, your masts crack,

To nature, and her dark and secret causes.

But he's too bashful to behold a woman.

44. A man of sovereign parts you are esteemed;
Well filled in the arts, glorious in arms;
Nothing becomes you ill, that you would will.

Is a sharp wit matched with too blunt a will,
Whose edge hath power to cut, whose will still wills
It should spare none that come within its power.

A saucy roughness.

49. There is a steadfast and a fixed nature,

'Gainst which the tide of passion and desire
Breaks harmless as the water o'er the rock;
And the rich light of beauty shines alone
On thy soul's surface, leaving all beneath it
Unmoved, and cold as subterranean springs:
Love hath no power o'er spirits such as thine.
FANNY KEMBLE-Star of Seville.

And art thyself a lover and a friend.
