_Nightingale and Thorn_ (Vol. viii., p. 527.).--Add Young's _Night

Thoughts_, Night First, vers. 440-445.:

"Griefs sharpest thorn hard pressing on my breast,

I strive with wakeful melody to cheer

The sullen gloom, sweet Philomel! like thee,

And call the stars to listen--every star

Is deaf to mine, enamour'd of thy lay."
