      From the German of Schiller . Wrapt in gloomy mist of even Atl my joys are fled afar , One bright ray in mem o ry's heaven Lingers , —one immortal star . See it beam celestial light;—No ! ' tis but a gleam of night . Death ' s long slumber hath o ' erta'en thee , Veil'd ; those iovely eyes of thine- — Can my sorrows , Emma , pain thee ? Beats thy bosom now with mine ? Ah i thou liv ' st in light above ; But thou . liv ' st not for my love ! IjOve s emotions perish never : Can they perish , Emma , say ? A U beneath is fleeting ever : And must love too pass away ? Can this flame of heav ' nly fire hike » n , eaithly spark expire ?

      T To Spring . Thrice welcome ! soul-reviving Spring-, That com ' st with smiles ; and with thee bm ' ng , The Zephyrs bland , with balmy wing , Gladding- the plains , And let the feather'd warblers sing , Their softest strains . Sweet Philomel ' s antumna ! lay , When tears hang trembling on the spray , May softly hymn departed day , With pensive voice $ But when thou com ' st enchanting May , All hearts rejoice .

      The violet , and the primrose pale , Perfume with sweets the vernal gale , Roses and lilies of the vale , United bring , Their choicest , fairest charms to hail Returning Spring . Ah ! I have seen a blushing rose , At young-eyed morning just unclose , Wafting * with every gale that blows Fragance around , Cropt off before it fully blows , Fade on the ground . This fate was thine , thou lovely maid ! 'Twas faithless love that thee betray'd , ( Thou fairest flower of all the glade ) And yew trees wave , Where oft with breaking heart I tread Thy lowly grave ! C . * .
