THE NAUTILUS. Build thee more stately mansions, oh, my soul, A s the swift seasons roll. Leave thy low vaulted past. Ixt each new mansion, nobler than the last, Shut thee from heaven with a dome more vast. Till thou at length art fr e e ; leaving thine out-grown shell By life's unresting sea — Holmes’ ’ ‘The Nautilus.” Devoted to the A rt and Science o f Self-Expression. j MONTHLY. i \Fifty Ceuts a Year, f V o l.
