To ask their morning meal: for i was wont,
With friendly hand, to give their morning meal,
Was wont to love their song, when ling'ring mom
Streak'd tfer the chilly landscape the dim light.
848 *'
Behold yon pool, by un-exhausted springs
Still wiirtur'd, draw the multitudes that graze
The plain adjarf/ff. --on the bank worn bare,
And printed with ten f/iiwsand steps, the colts
In shifting groups combine; tir, to the brink
Descending, dip their pasteV/is in the wave.
Bolder, the horned tribes, or less of heat
And teasing insects patient, far from shore
Immerge their chests; and, while the hungry swarm
Now soars aloft, now resolute descends,
Lash their tormented sides; and, stamping quick
And oft, the muddy fluid scatter round.
849
The glow of eve is faded. Scarce the West
Retains a pale rnenio-|-rja7 of | the beams
That fir'd it, when the horizontal clouds,
With purple dies and fissures edged with gold,
Streak'd till calm ather; while, through sparkling haze,
The faint hills gltmmev'd, fainter, as their chain
Approach'd the fount of brightness, fainter still
As sunk the parting orb, and with the sky
In uhdistingM/sAable splendor join'd
Milder, still milder, the subsiding glow
Spar'd the pain'd eye-ball, and, with sober rays
Quench'd in the gath'ring dusk, refresh'd the sight.

850. -- The Finding of Moses.
Slow glides the Nile: amid the margin flags,
Clos'd in a bulrush ark, the babe is kft,
Left by a mother's hand. His sister waits
Far off; and, pale, 'tween hope and fear, beholds .
The royal maid, surrounds? by her train,
Approach the river bank, approach the spot
Where sleeps the iunocHnt. She sees them stoop
To view the ark. The rushy lid is op'd,
And wakes the infant, smiling in his tears ;
As when, along a little mountain lake^
The summer south-wind breathes with gentle sigh,
And parts the reeds, unveilifwg, as they bend,
A water lily floating on the wave.

What prodigie"s can pow'r divine perform
More grand than it produces year by year,
And all in sight of inattentive man ?

And renovariow of a faded world,

Inhuman sons of Europe ! not content
With dooms of death, your victim high you hung
Encag'd, to scorch beneath the torrid ray,
And feed, alive, the hungry fowls of heav'n.
Around the bars already, see, they cling !
The vulture's head . looks through: she strives in vain
To force her way. The lesser birds await
'Till worn-out nature sinks : then on they pounce,
And tear the quiv'ring flesh. In agony
The victim wakes, and rolls his wretched eye? ,
And feebly drives the rav'ning flocks away.
Most dread/'w//y he groans: 'tis thirst, third, thirst,
Direst of human torments ! Down a^ain
He sinks : again he feels the tort'ring beak.
