On the manna-like sweetness that fell from his tongue

Not alone on the ear his wild eloquence stole;

Enforced by each gesture, it sunk to the soul,

Till it seemed that an angel had brightened the sod,

And brought to each bosom a message from God.

Mrs. Amelia Welby.

Seem’st thou dimly to remember

Some sweet spot ne’er seen before,

To have visited or known it,

Or in dreams or times of yore?
