    Hail, lun-bright days ! bring on your radiant train. Peace, Mercy, Love, refume your halcyon reign ; Bid ancient Lore, and claflic Tafte refin’d, Raife the low thought, and harmonize the mind ; While heav’n-born Truth, (tho’ dimm’d, forbid to fade,) With beam, more ftrong from Error's trarrfient fliade. Breaks forth unclouded, and on Mecca’s night Pours the full flood of everlalting light. MATTHEW ROLLESTON, University Coll.
