A POEM.

MRS. HEMANS,

AUTHOR OF "THE RESTORATION OF WORKS OF ART TO ITALY;" "MODERN GREECE;" "TALES AND HISTORIC POEMS;" WALLACE'S INVOCATION TO BRUCE." "Leur raison, qu'ils prennent pour guide, ne présente à leur esprit que des conjectures et des embarras; les absurdités où ils tombent en niant la Religion deviennent plus insoutenables que les verités dont la hauteur les étonne; et pour ne vouloir pas croire des mysterès incompréhensibles, ils suivent l'une après l'autre d'incompréhensibles erreurs." Bossuet, Oraisons funébres.
