LINES ON THE DEATH OF MR. CANNING.

By MR. CROKER.

NON OMNIS MORIAR.

Farewell, bright spirit ! brightest of the bright !
Concentrate blaze of intellectual light !
Who show'd, alone, or in the first degree,
Union so apt, such rich variety ;
Taste, guiding mirth; and sport, enlivening sense ;
Wit, wisdom, poetry, and eloquence.
Profound and playful, amiable and great ;
And first in social life, as in the state.
Not wholly lost !--thy letter'd fame shall tell
A part of what thou wast. Farewell ! Farewell !
Farewell, great Statesman ! whose elastic mind
Clung round thy country, yet embraced mankind;
Who, in the most appalling storms, whose power
Shook the wide world, wast equal to the hour.
Champion of measured liberty, whence springs
The mutual strength of people and of kings,
'Twas thine, like CHATHAM's patriot task, to wield
The people's force, yet be the monarch's shield.
Not wholly lost !—for both the worlds shall tell
Thy history in theirs. Farewell! Farewell !

Farewell, dear Friend ! in all relations dear,
In all we love, or honour, or revere ;
Son, husband, father, master, patron, friend :
What varied grief and gratitude we blend !
We, who beheld, when pain's convulsive start
Disturb’d the frame, it could not change the heart ;
We, whose deep pangs to soften and console,
Were the last efforts of thy flying soul.
Not wholly lost ! -our faith and feelings tell
That we shall meet again. Farewell! Farewell!

LINES TO A SKYLARK.'

By MR. WORDSWORTH.

ETHEREAL Minstrel! Pilgrim of the sky!
Dost thou despise the earth where cares abound?
Or while the wings aspire, are heart and eye
Both with thy nest upon the dewy ground?
Thy nest which thou canst drop into at will;
Those quivering wings composed, that music still!

To the last point of vision, and beyond,
Mount, daring warbler! that love-prompted strain
('Twixt thee and thine a never-failing bond)
Thrills not the less the bosom of the plain;
Yet might'st thou seem, proud privilege! to sing
All independent of the leafy spring.

Leave to the nightingale her shady wood;
A privacy of glorious light is thine;

Whence thou dost pour upon the world a flood
Of harmony, with rapture more divine;

Type of the wise who soar-but never roam,

True to the kindred points of Heaven and Home.'

STANZAS,

ADDRESSED TO A LADY ON HER RECOVERY FROM A SEVERE

ATTACK OF PAIN.'

By MR. COLERIDGE.

'Twas my last waking thought, How can it be,

That thou, sweet friend, such anguish should'st endure?
When straight from Dreamland came a Dwarf, and he
Could tell the cause, forsooth, and knew the cure.

Methought he fronted me with peering look,
Fix'd on my heart; and read aloud, in game,
The loves and griefs therein, as from a book;
And utter'd praise like one who wish'd to blame.

In every heart (quoth he), since Adam's sin,
Two FOUNTS there are, of SUFFERING and of CHEER,
That to let forth, and this to keep within!

But she, whose aspect I find imaged here,
