A BIT OF SCIENCE.

  What! photograph in colors? 'Tis a dream    And he who dreams it is not overwise,  If colors are vibration they but seem,    And have no being. But if Tyndall lies,    Why, come, then—photograph my lady's eyes.  Nay, friend, you can't; the splendor of their blue,    As on my own beclouded orbs they rest,  To naught but vibratory motion's due,    As heart, head, limbs and all I am attest.  How could her eyes, at rest themselves, be making  In me so uncontrollable a shaking?
