Her spirit flashes through her eyes ! Her pulse beats slow, — her breath is gone And there insensible she lies ! THE SPECTRE. In the grey shades of evening, — the dusk of twilight, When the moon is on watch Mke a warder of night ; When the atlas of Heaven with its stars is unfurl'd. And the black pall of death is thrown over the world ; When man has retired from the toil of the day, And all hnt remembrance seems fading away ; The earth looks deserted, its tenants all fled, Asleep and unconsciou...s as if they were dead ! Oh ! this is the all hallowed season to find. Alone in their studies, the wakeful of mind ; — The wrestler of thought, and the genius sublime. Whose ideal creations anterior to Time, Like the work of enchantment, when internal sight Steals over our senses like a dream of the night ; When the soul in a trance deserting us here, Is viewing Creation from some higher sphere ! Abstracted, absorbed in reflection, the eye 167 Sees a flick' ring light passing suddenly by ; Which slowly recedes as we onward advance, But dodges our steps like a ghost of romance ; And haunting our fancy entwines like a spell, As if it had something mysterious to tell.
