 DN THE DEATH OF AN INFANT. " Early, bright, transient as the morning dew, She sparkled, was exhaled and went to heaven" Hast thou not seen a fragile flower Wet with the dews of morning, With many pearly drop and gem Its open leaves ado.ning? And glistening in the beam of day, Hast seen those dew-drops steal away? So we have seen liUing flower In childhood's merry morning, A simple love and gentleness

 Her budding life adorning; But, like the dews before the sun, Her earthly course was quickly run. Hast thou not seen tulips bud |" Its honied lips unclosing, Plucked rudely from the parent stem On which it hung reposing, To deck princely lady's hair, And breathe its balmy fragrance there? So we have seen fairer bud,

 A living soul inclosing Too rudely snatched from earth away; And now in bliss reposing, She shines pure and priceless gem Upon her Saviour's diadem. JUNO.
