On a sofa and read new novels : —our sofa should be the blooming turf , and our book the untiring novel of earth , sea , and sky ; while summer airs , heavy with fragrance , float languidly by , mingled * keen knowledges of deep embowered eld' with high presages of happy future days . ' Oh , it is pleasant , with a heart at ease , ' to revel in the beauty of lurid-eyed summer , while every motion , odour , beam , and tone ,
* With that deep music is in unison , Which is a soul within the soul 1 *
Spring promises , summer performs , and then comes autumn , weaving together flowers and fruits like the garland of an Ipsariote girl . Its ' green old age' soon changes to decay , and a grave beneath * the moist rich smell of the rotting leaves : ' and so the year dies . Peace to its manes ! Its life and its death are too closely united for us to perceive the parting ; and of its seasons , * each hiding some delight / we would say and feel ' how happy could I be with either !'

THE SPIRIT OF LOVE .
Untitled Article
A loving spirit is the key to bliss , To beauty and to knowledge , and whate ' er Is good and glorious in a world like this ; "Tis the best fruit the tree of life doth bear : Its sweetness only can assuage despair ! Envy and hate and all affections base It overcomes , —and grief and cankering care It puts to flight , e ' en as the sunbeams chase The mists and clouds away , to sparkle in their place !
It mingles with Omnipotence—it brings Heav ' n down to earth , and maketh man to go Before the presence of the € King of Kings ' In light , in glory that surpasseth show : Happy the bosom that maintains the glow Of love , that holds God ' s spirit for a guest ! Thrice happy he who strives to build below A home of peace—an ark of holy rest , Who bears , where ' er he goes , a heav ' u within his breast .
