S*^^ THE rOEXS OF XARTELL.

The Hoi J Script arc vialicates his cstoaCj
And mooarchs are above ail boman laws.

Thus said the Scarlet Whore to her gaOaiit,
Who atrai^t designed his brother to sapplant :
Fkrads of ambirioa here his soul possessed,
Ai>d thirst of empire calentared his breast.

Hence ruin and destmctioQ had ensned.
And all the people been in hUxtd imbrued.
Had not Almi^tj Providence drawn near.
And stoi>ped his malice in his full career.

Be wise, je sons of men, tempt God no more ;
To give TOO kings in 's wrath to vex joa sore :
If a king's brother can such mischiefs bring,
Then how much greater mischiefs such a king?

CARMINA MISCELLANEA.



ROS.

Cernis, ut Eoi descendat gemmula roris,

Inque rosas roseo transfluat orta sinu.
SolliciUi flores stant ambitione supini,

Et certant foliis pellicuisse suis.
Ilia tamen patriae lustrans fastigia sphserse,

Negligit hospitii limina picta novi,
Inque sui nitido conclusa voluminis orbe,

Exprimit aetherei, quk licet, orbis aquas.
En, ut odoratum spernat generosior ostrum,

• Yixque premat casto mollia strata pede ;

Suspicit at longis distantem obtutibus axem,

Inde et languenti lumine pendet amans,
Tiistis, et in liquidum mutata dolore dolorem,

Marcet, uti roseis Inchryma fusa genis.
Ut pavet, et motum treinit irrequieta cubile,

Et, quoties zephyri fluctuat aura, fugit !
Qualis inexpertam subeat forinido puellam,

Sicubi nocte redit incomitatti doinum,
Sic et in horridulas agitatur gutta procellas,

Dum pro virgineo cuncta pudore timet ;

310 TIIF- POEM*

Donee obemmtem radio clemente raporet,

loque jubar reducem sol genitale tmhat.
Talis, in humano si possit fiore Tideri,

£xul obi longas mens agit nsqae moras ;
Use quoque natalis meditans cooviTia coeli,

ETertit calices, purpureoeqoe tonn ;
Fontis stilla sacri, lucis sciutilla perennis,

Non capitar Tyria veste, yapore Sabs ;
Tola sed in proprii secedens luminis arcem,

Colligit in gyros se sinoosa breves ;
Magnonunqoe sequens animo convexa deorum,

Sidereum parvo fingit in orbe globuin.
Quam bene in averse modulum contracta figurse

Oppositom mondo claodit ubique latus ;
Sed bibit in speeulum radios omata rotundum,

£t circumfuso splendet aperta die.
Qua superos spectat ratilans, obscurior infra,

Caetera dedignaus, ardet amore poli.
Subsilit, bine agili poscens diseedere motu,

Undique coelesti cincta soluta vise.
Totaque in aereos extenditur orbita cursus ;

Hinc punctim curpens, mobile stringet iter.
Hand aliter mensis exundans manna beatis

Deserto jacuit stilla gelata solo ;
Stilla gelata solo, sed solibus bausta'benignis,

Ad sua, quk cecidit, purior astra redit.

OF HARVELL. 31 J



HORTUS.

QuiSNAM adeoy mortale genus ! praecordia versat ?
Heu palmsB, laurique furor, vel simplicis herbae !
Arbor ut indpmitos ornet vix una labores,
Tempora nee foliis praecingat tota malignis ;
Dum simul implexi, tranquillae ad serta quietis,
Omnigeni coeunt flores, integraque sylva.

Alma Quies, teneo te I et te, germana Quietis,
Simplicitas !
