T WRITTEN AT THE OLD MILL," ST. ATHAN, GLAMORGANSHIRE, How calm, how peaceful is this cottage home! So grateful to a weary stricken heart Sick of the. world's mad tumult, and the smart Of its unkindness. Here its dash and foam No longer dins me. Not the gilded dome— The regal palace, rich with sculptur'd art And costly gear, could such sweet rest impart As this thatch'd roof, o'er which the breezes roam Untainted with the world's polluting breath; But pure as Ileav'n, and on their pinions free, They bring with them o'er meadow, brake, and heath, The strange, deep murm'rings of the distant sea; The voice of many waters borne afar, Breathing their vespers to the evening star! SewpQrt, February 5, 1849. J. R. THOMAS.
