    Led thro' a said variety of woe:
    Now warm in love, now with'ring in my bloom,
    Lost in a convent's solitary gloom!

Belshazzar had a letter,--
He never had but one;
Belshazzar's correspondence
Concluded and begun

The conscience of us all
Can read without its glasses
On revelation's wall.

An exquisite invention this,
Worthy of Love's most honeyed kiss,--

In clever daffodils and pinks;
In puns of tulips; and in phrases,
Charming for their truth, of daisies.

Every day brings a ship,
Every ship brings a word;
Well for those who have no fear,
Looking seaward well assured
That the word the vessel brings
Is the word they wish to hear.
