Go far too far you cannot, still the farther The more experience finds you: And go sparing;

One meal a week will serve you, and one suit, Through all your travels; for you'll find it certain,

The poorer and the baser you appear,
The more you look through still.

Of Travelling. Maxim IV.
One who journeying

Along a way he knows not, having crossed
A place of drear extent, before him sees
A river rushing swiftly toward the deep,
And all its tossing current white with foam,
And stops and turns, and measures back his
way.

But count the world a stranger for thy sake:
The private wound is deepest.

g. ALEX. SMITH-A Life-Drama. Sc. 2.

The laurell, meed of mightie conquerours

And poets sage; the firre that weepeth still; The willow, worne of forlorne paramours; The eugh, obedient to the bender's will; The birch, for shafts; the sallow for the mill;

The mirrhe sweete-bleeding in the bitter wound;

The warlike beech; the ash for nothing ill; The fruitfull olive; and the platane round; The carver holme; the maple seldom inward sound.

Ye lofty Pines! ye venerable Oaks!
Ye Ashes wild, resounding o'er the steep!
Delicious is your shelter to the soul.

p. THOMSON-Seasons. Summer. L. 469. Sure thou did'st flourish once! and many springs,

Many bright mornings, much dew, many showers,

Passed o'er thy head; many light hearts and wings,

Which now are dead, lodg'd in thy living bowers.

And still a new succession sings and flies; Fresh groves grow up, and their green branches shoot

Towards the old and still-enduring skies;
While the low violet thrives at their root.
q.
VAUGHAN-The Timber.

A brotherhood of venerable Trees.

T. WORDSWORTH-Sonnet composed at Castle -.
