BY Montgomery
THIS shadow on the dial's face,
That steals from day to day,
With slow, unseen, unceasii,g pace,
Moments and months, and years away
This shadow, which, in every CLINE,
Since light and motion first began,
Hath held its course sublime
What is il Mortal man
tits the scythe oftime-
A shadow Only to the eye,
Yet, in its calm career,
. 1t levels ali beneath the sky;
And still, through each succeeding year,
Right onward with rcsistless power,
Its stroke shall darkencyery hour,
Till Natures race begun,
And its last motion shall eclipse the sum-
Nor only DER the diaps face,
\ The silent shade, from day 10 day bf
With slow, unseen, unceasing pace,
Steals moments, months, aud years away
From hoary rock, and aged tree,
From proud Pallnyra's mouldcripg walls,
From 1enerific, towering Ger the sea,
From every blade of glass thatfalls.
For, O iwhcrc'cr shadow sweeps,
'rhc scythe Of Time destroys;
And man at every footstep wceps
D'er cvaBcscent joys;
LIES fowrets g!ittering with the dews OF morn,
Fair fora moment, then forever shorn -
All !soon beneath the inevitable blow,
7 too shall lie in dust, and darkness low.
Then Time, the Conqucrour, win suspend
Ills scythe, trophy, DER my tomb,
Whose moving shadow shall portcnd
Zach frail beholdcr's DOOM
DER the wide earth's illumired space,
Through Times triumphant fight be shown,
Z rhe truest index OH its face
Points from The church-yard stone.
