SONNET.

I'iriourn not at the thought that 1 shall leave This world of men. How could I whfn I think That not one joy shall cease, or heart shall grieve, Or eye be tear ennobled when I sink Into the depths of Orcus ? But thou, blue Eternal sky,— O I could leave to-day With Roman resignation if I knew That thou wouldst not for ever fade away ; And O, ye mountains, and ye forest trees ; Thou many-voiced and ever restless sea, ! Responding to the tempest and the breeze Like human hearts to poet's melody ; — No chord can render, and no voice can tell - What I shall feel when bidding you Farewell. — O. B. Hugo.
