ANTHONY'S CHARACTER OF BRUTUS.

This was the noblest Roman of them all;
All the conspirators, save only he.
Did that they did in envy of great Cæsar:
He, only, in a general honest thought,
And common good to all, made one of them.
His life was gentle; and the elements

So mix'd in him, that Nature might stand up,
And say to all the world-This was a man!

Julius Cæsar,-Act V.

OUR INFANT IN HEAVEN.

[graphic]

ILENCE filled the courts of heaven,
Hushed were angel harp and tone,
As a little new-born spirit

Knelt before the eternal throne;

While her small white hands were lifted,
Clasped as if in earnest prayer,
And her voice in low, sweet murmurs,
Rose like music on the air.

Light from the full fount of glory

On her robes of whiteness glistened, And the bright-winged seraphs round her Bowed their radiant heads and listened:

Lord! from thy throne of glory here

My heart turns fondly to another;
O, Lord, our God, the comforter,
Comfort, comfort my sweet mother!
Many sorrows hast thou sent her,

Meekly has she drained the cup,
And the jewels thou hast lent her,

Unrepining, yielded up—
Comfort, comfort my sweet mother.

Earth is frowning darkly round her,
Many, many hast thou taken;

Let her not, though clouds surround her,
Feel herself of thee forsaken.

Let her think, when faint and weary,
We are waiting for her here;

Let each loss that makes earth dreary,

Make the thought of heaven more dearComfort, comfort my sweet mother.

Savior! thou in nature human,

Dwelt on earth a little child, Pillowed on the breast of woman,

Blessed Mary! undefiled.

Thou, who from the cross of suffering,
Marked thy mother's tearful face,
And bequeathed her to thy loved one,
Bidding him to fill thy place-
Comfort, comfort my sweet mother.

Thou, who from the heaven descending,
Tears, and woes, and suffering won;
Thou, who Nature's laws suspending,
Gave the widow back her son;
Thou, who at the grave of Lazarus,
Wept with those who wept their dead;
Thou, who once in mortal anguísh.
Bowed thy own anointed head-
Comfort, comfort my sweet mother!

The dove-like murmurs died away
Upon the radiant air,

But still the little suppliant knelt,
With hands still clasped in prayer;
Still were her softly-pleading eyes
Turned to the sapphire throne,

OUR INFANT IN HEAVEN.-WOMAN.

Till golden harp and angel voice
Rang out in mighty tone;

PARTING OF BRUTUS AND CASSIUS.

Bru. No, Cassius, no: think not, thou noble Roman
That ever Brutus will go bound to Rome;
He bears too great a mind. But this same day
Must end that work, the ides of March begun :
And whether we shall meet again, I know not.
Therefore our everlasting farewell take:-
For ever, and for ever, farewell, Cassius!
If we do meet again, why, we shall smile:
If not, why then this parting was well made.

Cas. For ever and for ever, farewell, Brutus;

If we do meet again, we'll smile indeed;

If not, 'tis true this parting was well made.

Bru. Why, tnen, lead on. O, that a man might know
The end of this day's business, ere it come!

But it sufficeth, that the day will end,

And then the end is known.
