And foaming whirlpools gather o'er,
The lonely grave.

For memory could but own,
The ad had flung itself where fell

sad,and he spoke with a low and pensive tone:
'l'hitsi the two, .late so happy, entered ths

there was discontent or sorrow, between them.
She rallied tbetn, and her cheerful converse
tioddispelled for the time the phantom of evil
prophedy, and they smiled, and chatted; and
' sang,
,and finally parted, with tender good
night, for, Mr. Noble had Soma - business to

at the:emotion Which Lncreco had diaplayed,
on his meeting her that evening. Then it
was strange that'she should be sitting in a ,
leafless bower, so late, of an autamnal eve-)

heart till ' then, whispered—" Who was the,
stranger_ that passed me so hastily_ near the

But lie thrust the demodaside. ',She was -ill,,
had splakenof presentiment; she was evident
ly suffering from a nervous affection., He was
angry that a thought, of his should thtuwrong
the sincerity. of her pure young spirit. =
