The Mirror of Literature, Amusement, and Instruction - Volume 13, No. 363, March 28, 1829 by Various
page 8 of 54 (14%)
Stop the meridian flight
Of Jove's proud plumy race;
Arrest the fiercest fight
When foe-men battle face.

Forbid the earth to turn.
Forbid the tides to flow,
Forbid the sun to burn,
Forbid the winds to blow.

Bid the fix'd orb of day.
Beyond his sphere to move,
Or cease th' attempt, I pray,
To stop the course of love.

T.F.

I'LL BE AT YOUR BALL

(_For the Mirror._)

Ah! ce n'est pas moi qui romprait la première l'union sacrée de nos
coeurs; vous le savez bien que ce n'est pas moi, et je rougirais
presque, d'assurer ce qui n'est que trop certain.--_Corinne, par_
MADAME DE STAEL.
