Awhile, like thee, the hero borne, And moke and fomea around ; t And then, like thee, to ashes turn, And minglea with the ground ! Thou'rt like the man of worth, who gives To goodness every day J The fragrance of whose Virtue Uvea When lie has passed away. Oft when the snowy columns grows, And breaks and falls away, I '.race how mighty realms rose, Then tumbled to decay ! From beggar'a frieze to monarch's robe, One comn.on doom i passed ; Sweet nature' works, the mighty globe, . Must atill bum out at last. And what ia he that emokee thee now 1 A little moving heap, That eoon, like thee, to fate most bow, Like ther, in dust must sleep ! And when 1 see thy smoke roll high, Thy ashes downward go ; 'Tis thus, methinks, my soul shall fly ! Thua leave my body low ! 600 BOOK AGENTS WANTED. i ANY good, active anil intelligent man, with a small capital of from 830 to a $100, can make laige profile by ngnging in tne aula ot tno loiiowing POPULAR AND USEFUL BOOKS.
