The pain is in her heart, that boding pain Left of the sword that Simeon saw, yet now The Babe is on her breast that charms all pain. PART III. MIRACLE OF THE DESERT. Nine days4 in the desert lost, On a sea of sand-waves tost, Quaffed the last sweet drink of water, Down our pilgrims sink and sigh; Down, perchance, to sleep and die; Nay, in weakness He is nigh, He who shields fair Sion's daughter. Lo! His angel-bands appear, And the fainting sleepers near, And the nearest angel sings As he scatters from his hands Golden seed upon the sands, With his wing the plantage fans Till the quickened seed up-springs. Straight another's shining shaft Cleaves the ground unto its haft, Following which the waters rush With a low and murmuring sound, Eddying in a circle round, Form a basin in the ground, Where a-brim the cool waves gush. One plants germs of purple fruit, Whence the sappy vines they shoot; Another makes the bread-tree rjse, Doth the fountain-border sow, Makes the fruited fig-tree grow, And the fragrant orange blow: And still the golden seed it flies. Boungavilla's purple bloom Gives the visioned night perfume, Poinsetta's azure streamers Floating from the cocoa trees, Waving in the wooing breeze, And the bamboo's widening leaves Hedge around the peaceful dreamers. Grasses creep o'er Mary's bed, Lilies flower about her head, Daffodils below her feet, And a stately sandal fair Spreads its odorous branches there, Casts its perfume in her hair, --Babe and mother slumbering sweet.

Excerpt from The Mystical Rose: Or, Mary of Nazareth, the Lily of the House of David Books I., II., and III. were written, and V. and VI. in part, before we had seen any traditional Life of the Virgin. We supposed ourself almost alone upon the ground. The rich poems of Willis, David's Child and Jephtha's Fair Daughter, walked not too near the One radiant Rose. Ingraham's Prince of the House of David came. The brilliant pen had left still untraced the Lily of the House. Was it an ambition, the charm of a subject untouched, or the attraction of a few olden pictures (paintings of Luke, Matthew, and John, growing as studied "like a transparency illuminated, behind which the light necessary for its development shining, it comes out" ever more and more beautiful) stirred the untried pen? Fearlessly we took up the subject at first. Was it divining it given, tranquilly expectant of the gift by little and little, in faith with its inherent virtue to supply and outshine of itself?
