PARADISE AND THE PERI.

ORNAMENTAL TITLE-PAGE 127

[Architectural details from Baghdad, &c.]

The glorious Angel, who was keeping

The gates of Light, beheld her weeping. 129

⸺She caught the last—

Last glorious drop his heart had shed. 135

Like their good angel, calmly keeping

Watch o’er them till their souls would waken. 143

Then swift his haggard brow he turn’d

To the fair child, who fearless sat. 148
