Spinello and Beatrice were ended.

_Note_.--The passage of Lanzi, to which I referred at the
commencement, is as follows:--

"The 'Fall of the Angels,' still remains in St. Angelo, at Arezzo,
in which Lucifer is represented so terrible, that it afterwards haunted
the dreams of the artist, and, deranging both his mind and body,
hastened his death. Bernardo Daddi was his scholar."--_History of
Painting in, Italy_, vol. i. p. 65. _Roscoe's Translation_.

First in the poetry is the Bechuana Boy, an affecting narrative, by Mr.
Pringle, as may be implied from one verse:

He came with open aspect bland,
And modestly before me stood,
Caressing with a kindly hand
That fawn of gentle brood;
Then meekly gazing in my face
Said in the language of his race,
With smiling look yet pensive tone--
"Stranger--I'm in the world alone."


The Irish Mother to her Child, a Song, by Mr. Banim, has great force and
feeling, with the date 1828, significantly appended to this stanza:

Alas! my boy, so beautiful! alas! my love, so brave!
