There dwelt misfortunes child.

Through evening's misty skiza-

That he had charish'd long j .. y
Twas her hclov'd so fervently,
Had wrought the cruel wrong.
Beneath her proud and haughty frown,
Life's cUarnis had fiud
Within his sad and cheerless heart,
No ray ofbope was shed.
Secluded from ti.e cold world's acorn.
That crush'd his manly pride
Within his gloomy cell he strove,
Affection's pang lo hide.;
In vain he sought that lone rotrcat,
Thinking relief to gain
Within his breast there still remairi'd
' Love's nevor dying pain. ! r- r 1
Full many days may glide away,
And rolling years be past ; '
Still love that's forin'd la early life,
Remains unchang'd and fast. , ' ;
