GOLGOTHA. IIY [????] In the dim and cloudy dreamland, Far away beyond the sea, Lies a region dark and gloomy— •Dark as night itself can be: And a mist for .aye hangs o'er it— "fis not night, but yet, 'tis dark, Fill the ghostly lights restore it, Strewn with corses grim and stark— Strewn with corses of the millions, Who, with banners all unfurled. Marched across death's sombre valley, With a tread that shook the world. Here the bony hartds of soldiers, Dusted sword, and shattered spear, Seem to grasp in grim defiance Of their spcetr# wand'ring near, — In a broken, tarnished helmet, Once of dazzling splendor full, 'The red rust the bono corroding) Lies a mould'ring shattered skull: And about these dreary regions, Hugo liyenas hungry prowl, Preying on the ghastly corses, While you hear their savage growl. All the wrecks of former ages Moulder here on every side; O'er the dust of ancient sages, Or a monarch's faded pride. Here lies all the ancient glory— All the great of Greece and Homo— All that thrilled us in their story From some old worm-eaten totne. In these regions, wierd and solemn, Stand old towers clad in gloom; Broken shaft or crumbled column Maiks. perhaps, some rifled tomb. And a dense and misty vapor, Full of pestilence and death, Ever hangs above this valley, . O'er the awful scone beneath; While above its shapes of horror, Ever sailing to and fro, Birds of prey and Ulest omen, Still, forever, come and go. Ah! I hear them wildly screaming Far above the sleeping dead! All their beaks with blood arc streaming— All their talons tinged-with red!— As I gaze adown this valley, All its horrors multiply— All its terrors and its death-scenes Xow arc painted on the sky; I'iorv serpents flit across it, Like red meteors in the night ; While the bale-fires still grow^d-' And recede from mortal ar mo, Here the slimy reptile' • 1 ilieypass, All hiss fiercely,; ()f ith then f>,y cs (J [ cm'rald glass. And ♦' a monster grim, gigantic, With a sceptre in his hand, On a massive throne of granite Kits as ruler of the land; A\ hile great shadowy winged phantoms, E'er ohediont to his noil, Kail nhout his dark dominions At the waving of his rod.— Ho is monarch of the nations, from earth have passed awnv; And his name is on his frontlet- It is written:— "GRIM DECAY." Hero through all tho'mistv cycles Of the tongueloss, dreamy past, He has held his court of terrors For his throng of subjects vast; And a low, and hollow murmur Ever steals across the air T is the tragic, ghostly whisper Of curst spirits in despair:— V nrp subjects of the kingdoms. That from earth have long been hurled To this Hades of the nations:— The dark tomb of at/ the world > Bedford, August 0, 18G2.
