Waiting, waiting. 'Tis so far

Walled up in sense we know no general plan

Warm whispering through the slender olive leaves

We have loiter'd and laugh'd in the flowery croft
Weep not for me

Were I a breath of summer air

Were life to last for ever, love

What do we here who with reverted eyes

What matter what matter-O friend, though the Sea
What spirit moves the quiring nightingales
When Fancy's exhalations rise

When first the rose-light creeps into my room
When first we met we did not guess

[merged small][ocr errors]

When Letty had scarce pass'd her third glad year
When man alone, or leagued in governments
When Spring comes laughing.

When the roads are heavy with mire and rut

When the tumult of day is done

Where are last year's snows

Where art thou loveliest, O Nature, tell
Where did you come from, baby dear?
Where is another sweet as my sweet

Who can determine the frontier of Pleasure?
Why do I sing? I know not why, my friend
Why do I love thee?" Thus, in earnest wise

Why should I constant be?.

With all my will, but much against my heart
With pipe and flute the rustic Pan.

With what vain speculations do we slake
Wouldst thou not be content to die.

Yes! in the sea of life enisled

We recommend the present volume, which takes us through antiquity, the Middle Ages, and the present time, illustrating all in turn by advertisements-serious, comic, roguish, or downright rascally. The chapter on swindles and hoaxes' is full of entertainment; but of that the volume itself is full from the first page to the last."-ATHENÆUM.
