The following Poem — composed by Master ^

at the Pu')lic li]xaraination — vvas adjudged i
Composition, and the prize was awarded tc

THE ATLANTIC.

Come Emulation, (hou *vl>o canst impart
Moiives to rouse, and zail to nerve the heart.
Who, fvhen our vetit'r )ii« stiivju^^stiave their scope
Enftvinest lounJ oui brows the vrrcath of hope,
Rtt thou loy mu«o, and by thy power inspire
T^o kiudhng fervour •( a youttil'ul lyre.

Hail, va«t Atlantic ! visible io thee,
I view '.f porter, ao awful mystery ;
III thjo d Npby'd thy Maker's wisJaro shines.
Thy structure grand, his might and skill combines ;
In dll thy part» a hand di ine is riear,
^Neati) all thy forms us attributes dppear,—
Wheihor wo view thee when the »luggish deep
Deneaih the azure sky a,)pears t « 8lf>ep i
When tlie calm'd vessel spread* I.ei snowy sail.
Ami vvoos the kisses of the nckie gale ;
Or A'hen at eve briijhtS'd i-etirea to rest
Beneath tiie covert of thine ample brenst ;
The western waves reflect each tinted cloud.
Rich vviih the splendour which its mtstn en«htoud :
Or .vhoa dark fio-^ns detorm thi* pi and skies.
And disunt sounds of rushing winds arise ;
W:i3n thro' the .»ir the conscious sea-birdi sweep.
And reckleds storms career along the deep i
When heaving billows viuk to gulfs immei»se,
Or lift their heads in dread m ifjnifipenoe ;
When vivid flas les round the horizon dart,
Aiid tfansieat gleams amid thf* giooui impart,
When giowling thunder roils m grandeur on,
And joins the winds in fullton'd unison ;
Wiieiher wa view thee wh<»n the leiui'Oiit raves,
Or when soft .eptiy s f.ui thy trduquiJ waves,
Slil lhoue.;!iiblt'il but lIis varied form,
V/ho3o breath can rouse, whosa nod cxa calm the
eloiin.

Tho deep thus dread, thu3 ?purnins end or bound,
Emblem of posver, and proof of skill profound,

To other rlimes, lo other worlds it leads ;
O'er ev'ry p .iut the daime; vessel moves.
And the die id sea a grand conneclie proves ;

And high nloft her honor ,d fluj unfolds
In every |>nrt her busy trade prevails,
The wing« of comoierceare hei swelling sails :
And navi;j;ation at her nod outpours
Euiight'iiing gifts on distant savage shores ;
To the etera plough the wilds are taught to yield,
Trjiisforin'd to smiling sceoe-i of farm and tie Id ;
Kno > ledge the chains of ignorance unbinds,
And brcuks the fetters of imprison'd minds ;
Thi* ejusffl sun its ray divinely throws
On 'oulheni deserts and on northern snovs.
And e'en from untill'd wastr-s and forests rude,
AsceiiJs the voice of pious gratitude.

But say — when tempests sweep along the main,
And idise the .surges on the liquid plain ;
Wheti the broad bog )in of e-ich to veiing wave

Tlio heavens above the boist'rons sea below.
No path to Ifiad, no mark the trj^rk to show,

Stands there an angel aiding at his "side.
