Batha- lina Clemens was at work somewhere in the chambers, counteracting any tendency to too great cheerfulness which the beauty of the day might develop in her mind, by singing the most doleful of minors : " ' Hearken, ye sprightly, and attend, ye vain ones ; Pause in your mirth, adversity consider; Learn from a friend's pen sentimental, painful Death-bed reflections,'" she sang, with fearful inflections and quavers....
