i ? Voi » Me Portuguese . The Maniac . Ixwk at yon sad mourner there ! Chilling thoughts bedew his cheeks , And in rapt loneliness he seeks Comfort in despair ! Jn midnight ctfld—and noontide heat He wanders o ' er the mountain wild , The rude crags wound his weary feet;—Yes , that is mis ' ry ' s child !
He wants no guide , he owns no friend , , No voice of joy he hears ; Darkness and dread his steps attend ; He hates the morning ' s loveliest beam , And the sun never shines for him Except in clouds and tears !
Brightest to him the blackest gloom ; His only paradise , the tomb : — Pity yon child of woe \ Pray that he soon may lay his head Where bis own hands have made his bed , And weeds and flow e rets grow , Water * d by tears himself has shed ;—Those tears have ceas'd to flow . That troubled , madden * d soul hath been Composed , and happy , and serene , As ' tis abandon ed now : Poor mis e ry ' s child , The tempest wild Is calmer far than thou !

But it shall blast , and rage and roar When sweet repose shall still thy frreast , < When thy mind's tempest beats no more , And thy lov' d grave shall gj # e thee rest , So long denied before . A little while , sad maniac ! and thou ' iree—Nor woe , nor thought of woe , shall visit thee .

Despair . From Bocage . What \ scathed with desolate curses , —nothing left ; Of hope , ofheav ' n , of ev ' ry thing bereft ? Ono ! I still may rage and weep and sigh : Pour forth the bitteraesa that blasts my mind , Tell all my agony to the list ' ning wind , And ( O ! most privileged of blessings , ) die !

Morning . See the new light in ruddy mantle clad Come dancing o ' er the mountains \ darkness flies From its gay footsteps ; trees , and plants , and flow ' rs Put on their brightest , richest liv ' ries : Smiles gild the path of early morning " * hours , And heav ' n is full of joy—and earth is glad .
