RUSTICUS.

"_Her Brow was fair._"--Can any of your many readers inform me of the

author of the following lines, which I copy as I found them quoted in Dr.

Armstrong's _Lectures_:

"Her brow was fair, but very pale,

And looked like stainless marble; a touch methought would soil

Its whiteness. On her temple, one blue vein

Ran like a tendril; one through her shadowy hand

Branched like the fibre of a leaf away."
