As die the brave , Riego died —• With freedom ' s-martyrs lives ^ his name ;—But , oh ! that , stretched in martial pride . His corse had grac ed the field of fame i Yet Russell ' s nerve the scaffold tried , Arid Wallace met the tree of shame : — Round each dark spot where freedom sighed ,
Such memories twine a sword of flame . Riego ' s sword is broke—but not Lost is his glory , near or far ; His fame shall yet be unfo r ^ ot In future fields of happier war : — In the freed peasant's peaceful cot
Hi 3 praise shall wake the sweet guitar . While Bourbon ' s , natne his gore shall blot , Hip own shall shine—his country ' s star 1 And thou , his land !—thy Pyrenees , Were they not pil'dto fence the free ? Still wilt tbou drain the bitter lees

These lines are founded on the supposition , that , previously to her acquaintance with our Lord , Mary Magdalene had been an erring woman . They contain only allusions to the Jewish Scriptures , with which she might have been familiar , and to the discourses of our Lord , many of which she had heard .
Glorious Father ! lo , before Thee Bends an erring child of clay ; Humbly there she dares implore Thee .,.
1 hat her feet no more may stray : Hear in pity , Lord of Nature I Since our frailty Thou dost know \ i / ead , oh lead , Thy pardoned creature Where redemption ' s fountains flow !
O ' er * my soul and all her errors Pitying stretch Thy golden rod , Shew Thy power without its terrors . Call the suppliant to her God : Bid the tardy gleaner gather
In the living field of heaven ; Let the prodigal a Father Find in Thee—the pa $ t forgiven ! Never more shall sin ' s dominion Then enthral this ransom'd breast ; Heavenly hope shall spread her pinion , Earthly passion sink to rest : —
* These four liiiesr are ' allusive to the appearance of Esther iu the presence of A luisneru * . . ..: .
