OTHER POEMS.

BY FELICIA HEMANS.

They tell but dreams-a lonely spirit's dreams-
Yet ever through their fleeting imagery
Wanders a vein of melancholy love,

An aimless thought of home-as in the song
Of the caged skylark ye may deem there dwells
A passionate memory of blue skies and flowers,
And living streams-far off!
