which are the Stranger Patron and the Castle of Reinspadte--both of
German origin. There is too, a faithful historiette of the Battle of
Trafalgar, which, with the History of the Family of Sir Thomas More,

THE SLEEPERS.

Oh! lightly, lightly tread!
A holy thing is sleep.
On the worn spirit shed,
And eyes that wake to weep:

A holy thing from heaven,
A gracious dewy cloud,
A covering mantle, given
The weary to enshroud.

Oh! lightly, lightly tread!
Revere the pale still brow,
The meekly drooping head,
The long hair's willowy flow!

That call the slumberer back,
From the world unseen by you,
Unto Life's dim faded track.
