THE PRIEST'S BURIAL.

He is dead!—he died of a broken heart,

Of a frighten'd soul, and a frenzied brain:

He died—of playing a desperate part

For folly; which others play'd for gain.

Yet o'er his turf the rebels rave!

Be silent, wretches!—spare the grave!

He is dead!—bewilder'd, betray'd, beguiled;
