Est, ubi forte trahit suspiria sola Voluptas, Qua læti nimium fletu solvuntur amantes, Quidam est longinqua dulcis Paradisus in ora, Hospes ab Idaliis, Zephyre O suavissime, lucis, Bis terque Elysios doceas resonare recessus, Nomen inornatæ, Superum quæ vincat amores, Virginis atque illo sit CAROLINA sono. H. D. FELIS PEREGRINABUNDA. 'Dic ubi terrarum, dulcissima Felis, abires ?" Augustæ in plateas, Reginam ut cernere possem.' Et quid in Augusta tibi contigit, optima Felis?" 'Attonitum feci murem sub sede latentem.' F. H. TOM BOWLING. HERE a sheer hulk lies poor Tom Bowling, The darling of our crew; No more he'll hear the tempest howling, For Death has broached him to. Tom never from his word departed, His virtues were so rare; His friends were many and true-hearted; His Poll was kind and fair: And then he'd sing so blithe and jolly But mirth is turned to melancholy, For Tom is gone aloft. Yet may poor Tom find pleasant weather Shall give, to call life's crew together, The word to pipe all hands! Thus Death, who kings and tars despatches, In vain Tom's life has doffed; For though his body's under hatches, His soul has gone aloft. DIBDIN. AMYCLAS. EN! jacet ad cautes, sine fune phaselus, Amyclas, Delicia gregis ille marini: Audiet haud iterum resonas super alta procellas, Gratior huic aderat species, et mascula forma, Inter transtra fide insignis patiensque laborum, Huic stetit ingenium miris virtutibus auctum, Carus ut ingenuis ubicunque sodalibus esset, Carmina sæpe etiam festiva voce canebat, Felicissimus inter nautas: Sed læti in tacitum risus vertere dolorem ; Ille abiit trans culmina mali. At tibi non gravior consurgat ventus, Amycla, Ære ciens nautas omnes compellet in unum, Qui verrunt tumidum mare vitæ. Sic, quæ finis adest nautis et regibus æque, Nam subjecta foris quamvis tibi membra rigescant, H. J. H. SAUL. 'THOU, whose spell can raise the dead, King, behold the phantom seer.' Earth yawned he stood the centre of a cloud: His hands were withered and his veins were dry: 'Why is my sleep disquieted? Who is he that calls the dead? Ere the coming day is done SAULUS. QUE potes obscoena voce excantare sepultos, Prodiit e tumulo cinctus caligine Vates, Vena suo vacua est sanguine, dextra riget. 'Cur vocor in lucem? placidam quis suscitat umbram? Hæc mea sunt; et tu, quum lux jam postera fugit, Imo, ante æthereum quam sol compleverit orbem, Talis erit natus, talis et ipse pater. Saule, brevi valeas! paucis labentibus horis, Mistus erit noster tempus in omne cinis: |
