AT ev'ry festive board th'admir'd guest, At ev'ry Ball the partner in request; 'Mid Fashion's throng wherever thou art seen Th' acknowledge'd fairest type of Beaty's Queen: And yet- wit all this tribute to thy grace, This servent homage of thy form and face; Unmov'd, unchang'd, thou art in all the same As heretofore; - nor Love, nor praise, nor blame, To thee or pleasure or annoy impart- Such is the icy coldness of thine heart! That thou art thus, explains full well to me, What I once deem'd mere fabulous to be: That even 'midst the Ocean's rolling wave, Where all earth'd waters find a common grave; There flow some Rivers which no less maintain Their course unbroken, and unmix'd retain Their Water's sweetness 'mid the briny main!-* So thou, who kindleft in all hearts, desire, Mov'st cold and still unscath'd amidst the fire!

QUIS fonacem Regis Babylonii sine adustione ingressus est, inquit, cujus adolescentis AEgyptica Domina pallium non terruit? Inter illecebras voluptatum etiam ferreas mentes libido domat. Difficilè inter opulas servatur pudicitia. -HIERON. lib. iii. Epist. 5. PERICLITATUR castitas in diliciis, humilitas in divitiis, pietas in negotiis, veritas in multiloquio, charitas in hoc mundo. -BERNARD. in quod. Serm.

THE rolling whell that runneth often round, The hardest stell in tract of time doth tear; And drizzling drops, that often do redound, The firmest flint doth in continuance wear: Yet cannot I, with many a dropping tear And long entreaty, soften her hard heart, That she will once vouchsafe my plaint to hear, Or look with pity on my painful smart. But, when I plead, she bids me play my part; And when I weep, she says; Tears are but water; And, when I sigh, she says; I know the art; And, when I wail, whe turns herself to laughter. So do I weep, and wail, and plead in vain, While she as steel and flint doth still remain. -EDMUND SPENSER.

*This was antiently and affirmed and believed of the River Alpheus, in its course trough the Sicilian Sea.

I PR'YTHEE send me back my heart, Since I can not have thine; For if from yours you will not part- Why then shouldst thou have mine? Yet now I think ont, let it lie, To find it were in vain; For thou'st a thief in either eye Would steal it back again. -SIR J.SUCKLING.

OH! who would love? I woo'd a Woman once, But she was sharper than an eastern wind, And all my heart turn'd from her, as a thorn Turns from the sea. -TENNYSON. THE fais Lauretta's eyes, so blue and bright, Look blank and cold when I am in her sight. Paint her not thus, kind limner! give her that Sweet smile she wears when talking to her cat. So shall I fondly think, whene'er I see The beaming Portrait, that is smiles on me. -Anon

Mediis immixtus in undis. READER! from this our Emblem learn to be Th'unmingling River, flowing through the sea Of this World's brackish waters. Thou too, keep Thy course unbroken 'mid the briny deep Off all its lures, its lusts and vanity. Though living in men's midst, yield not thine heart To those who would their taint to it impart; Lest soon commingling with the 'whelming tide Of Passion's waves which press on ev'ry side, Thy Soul's sweet waters lose their purity.

DISCITE in hoc mundo, suprĂ  mundum esse; et si corpus geritis, volitet in vobis ales interior. -AMEROS. de Virg. THAT ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, amon whom ye whine as lights in the world. -Philip. ii. 15. AND they that use this world, as not abusing it: for the fashion of this world passeth away. -I Corinth. vii. 31.

WHEN thou in darkenesse of the night didst blaze, I could not without envy on thee gaze; But when the Cyclop Titan comes in sight, There is no ods twixt darkenesse and thy light: I doe not envy thee, although thou shine; No glor' I have nor is the glory thine. As lightsome bodyes doe a shaddow give; So glory without envy cannot live: When greater glory doth the meane suppresse, It likewise takes the envy from the lesse. FARLIE'S Emblems.
