BY THE AUTHOR OF CORN-LAW RHYMES . ¦ - : — - 'An old man , to the field of graves T . ¦¦ Borne in his parish-shroud , methought , I " Found in the land of landless slaves The bed of rest , which long- he sought . But after many years had flown , ^> ' " That old man rose out of his grave , : And wonder'd at his native town , v ,. y t And found no honest man a slave . . . ; v , /
Whore once that town of trouble stood , ' * ^ - . And he the tyrant ' s frown had felt , ' ^ * Men , in sweet homes , by stream and wood , ^ ** Ami 4 their own green acres dwelt . j : " ' *' - * ¦ .- ; .- ' - ' > ^ di

Remote , an engined city groan'd Where bad men toiFd in penal gloom ; The Agnews there , the Pelhams moan'd , ir " - ' ' The Melvilles plied the penal loom .
