But how can I call back the tones That erst were fraught with glee ? My faltering- voice and quivering lip Would mar their melody .
You would not know the altered strain For from the heart it takes Its tone of gladness or of woe ; And mine , alas ! it aches . Then ask me not to sing to you The song of other years ; I dare not trust my trembling voice , * Twould soon be quenched in tears .

Random Recollections of the House of Commons from the Year 1830 to the close of 1835 . Including Personal Sketcnes of the leading Mem bers of all Parties . By One of no Party . Smith , Elder , 8 * Co . Ths&b Random Recollections are of the most miscellaneous character * They- include the * Forms of the House ; ' and the forms of the members * whether tall or short , thin or fat . The shape and colour of their coats , their waistcoats , and every article of their dress , whether worn with
becoming grace or carelessly put on . The abundance qr scarcity of their , Kair and its particular shade of black , white , brown , grey , or red . The cut of their whiskers—of their mustachios . The mode in which they hold their hands , and handle their arguments . In what direction they threw thfeir arms , or how they let them lie peaceably by their sides .
Their ages , their complexions , their eyes , noses , and mouths . Their chins , whether double or single ; shaved , or bearing a tuft of hair . The Bound of their voices , and the tone of their politics . Where they sit , and bow they sit , stand , or lie . But the list would become too long if we attempted to make it complete . The following extract describes one of the occasional scenes in the House , ' which
scenes' Have usually their origin in the impatience of honourable Members to get away from the House for the night ; but who . dare not venture to leave beffrre the division , 'lest the non-appearanoe of their names in the lists of the majority and minority the following morning should lead to some unpleasant questions from their respective constituents , if not to a requisition to remgh their seats . 4
