_On Shakespeare_.

Renowned Spenser, lie a thought more nigh To learned Chaucer, and rare Beaumont lie A little nearer Spenser, to make room For Shakespeare in your threefold, fourfold tomb.

DAVID EVERETT.

1769-1813.

_Lines written for a School Declamation_.

You'd scarce expect one of my age To speak in public on the stage; And if I chance to fall below Demosthenes or Cicero, Don't view me with a critic's eye, But pa.s.s my imperfections by.

Large streams from little fountains flow, Tall oaks from little acorns grow.

JOSEPH HOPKINSON.

1770-1842.

_Hail Columbia_.

Hail Columbia! happy land!

Hail, ye heroes! heaven-born band!

F. S. KEY.

_The Star-spangled Banner_.

The star-spangled banner, O long may it wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

ALBERT G. GREENE.

_Old Grimes_.

Old Grimes is dead; that good old man, We ne'er shall see him more: He used to wear a long black coat, All b.u.t.toned down before.

JOHN LOUIS UHLAND.

_The Pa.s.sage_. _Translated by Mrs. Sarah Austin_.

Take, O boatman, thrice thy fee; Take--I give it willingly; For, invisible to thee, Spirits twain have crossed with me.

CHRISTOPHER P. CRANCH.

_Stanzas_.

Thought is deeper than all speech; Feeling deeper than all thought; Souls to souls can never teach What unto themselves was taught.

EATON STANNARD BARRETT.

_Woman_.

Not she with trait'rous kiss her Master stung, Not she denied him with unfaithful tongue; She, when apostles fled, could danger brave, Last at his cross, and earliest at his grave.

MISS f.a.n.n.y STEERS.

_Song_.
