Volume 58 / Part 20 — CORALI.

Reading edition

Soft-brow'd, majestic Corali! Thou like a memory serene Seemest to me—or melody, Or moonlight scene. With thee life in soft plumage glides, As on the ruffled lake the swan, Whose downy breast the struggle hides That speeds it on. In thy fair presence wakes no care; Harsh discords into music melt; Thy harmony alone is there— Alone is felt. The heart, unsway'd by hope or dread, Safe haven'd in a clime of balm, Nor chain'd in ice, nor tempest-sped, Lies rock'd in calm. J. D.
