POETRY
FROM THE INDEPENDENT WHIG.
REFLECTIONS ON THE APPROACH OF WINTER.
Lo! now Nature droops her head,
And shrinks before the northern blast,
The trees their "leafy honours" shed,
And Autumn's glory flies in haste.
From Zembla's cold and dreary shores,
Bleak Winter comes with rapid strides.
Of storms he brings his various stores
And pours them down the mountain sides
The clouds in swift succession roll,
And each its full fruition bring:
But that immortal spark, The soul,
Shall flourish in perennial Spring.
THEODORE.
