GEMS FROM THE CLASSICS.
I. From Catuiaus, Car, Y. Let us live, and lot us love! <Fiowers below, and stars above.) We have you in and fervent hearts! And what are honours, riches, arts, Without rosy checks and lips. From which the nectar sips 3 3jet us love and not forget Life is Bhort; the sun will set. Soon ire part from love and light To rett in Death's eternal night! IL . From Tibillus, 111., 6,47. If she swears by her beautiful laughing eyes, By sun, or by moon, or the starry skies, By Juno or Venus —believe her not, 3Tor a woman.- promise ii soon forgot. Time scatters voytb as the winds do chsff, And at lovers' perjuries Jove doth laugh! O. B. Hugo.
