J. EASTWOOD.

Ecclesfield Hall, Sheffield.

"_Her face is like," &c._ (Vol. vii., p. 305.).--

"Her face is like the milky way i' the sky,--

A meeting of gentle lights without a name."

These lines are from Act III. of Sir John Suckling's tragedy of

_Brennoralt_, and are uttered by a lover contemplating his _sleeping_

mistress; a circumstance which it is important to mention, as the truth

and beauty of the comparison depend on it.
