[FOR THE COLONIAL Human] . SUMYER.

Dire Winter's reign is done, And earth exults, freed from his tyranny; The gentle showers and the cheering sun Pour their mild influence on field and tree.

Earth‘s surface is no more Wrapped in a deep, oblivious slirowd ofsnow; A verdant mantle softly clothes it o’er, 0 And all looks smilingly and sweet below.

Ocean’s majestic wave, Unchained and free, boundsjoyously along: lt wears not now the fetters ofthe slave; No icy barriers bind it, thick and strong.

~The heavens above are bland, And the bright sun smiles kindly down on earth; The air is balmy, and across the land Comes the soft sea-breeze, dancing in its mirth.

The trees again are ('Illd In their soft, leafy ,vestments, and appear Beauteous and blushing as a [widen-not sad, As erst they did, like mourners routid a bier.

Wild songs ofmelody Are heard again amid the verdant grove: All things are animate with life and glee—— All creatures breathing the soft tones of love.

Summer, I hail thy might“; My heart exults beneath thy gracious reign, . Tliy touch makes all things beautiful and bright, Thy power renews the face ofeartli again. PHiLonimus. June, 1844.
