Ben. Bare-Head.
Bertrand, Michigan, Jan. 31, 1842.
The following lines are pretty good for so young a writer:—
THE DESTRUCTION OF SODOM AND GOMORRAH, THE CITIES OF THE PLAIN.
Brightly o’er those proud cities
The morning sun arose,
And over those princely palaces
His robe effulgent throws.
But whether on stately palace,
Or spire, or idol fane,
