Sicily, hear one of the burning mountains, one day they espied a coach and six, all in black, going towards the mount with great velocity; when it came past them they were so near that they could perceive the dimen. sions and features of one that sat in it. The young man said to the rest, If I could believe my own eyes, or if ever I saw one like another, I would say, that is the Duke. In an instant, they heard an audible voice echo from the mount, Open to the Duke of Queens berry; upon which the coach, now near the mount, evanished. The young man took pen and paper, and marked down the month, day, and hour of the apparition; and upon his return, found it exactly answer the day and hour the duke died.

The Rapture.

BURST ye emerald gates! and bring,

To my raptur'd vision,

All the extatic joys that spring,
Round the bright elysian
Lo! we lift our longing eyes !
Break ye intervening skies;

Son of Righteousness arise;
Ope the gates of paradise.

Floods

Floods of everlasting light

Freely flash before him: Myriads with supreme delight Instantly adore him.

Angel trumps resound his fame, Lutes of shining gold proclaim All the music of his name, Through eternity the same.

Four and twenty elders rise,
From their princely stations:
Shout his glorious victories,
Sing the great salvation :

Cast their crowns before his throne,

Cry in reverential tone,

Holy! holy! holy One!

T'whom be endless praise alone.
