PARAPHRASE OF Jo5 XIII.
FEW are the days of man of woman born,
And full of trouble is his life's brief span
The fragile flower that gayly blooms at morn,
And dies at eyening-sptly pictures maj,
He ike the unsubstsniial shadow, les,
Nor lesyes behind one trace of what he
was
And wilt thou open, O supreme thine eyes,
On sach an one, to judge him by thy laws
The fallen tree, tina, leaves it's root in earth,
Has hope, aitho' i, die beneath the ground 1;
The waters scent shall call young scions
forth,
And bid new buds and branches spread
around.
But man, frail man, decays, and tastes g.
way,
He Yields his spirit up-and whore is he !
With ne " clad yerdure shall he wake iiofn
clay,
And .pring to life and beauty. like the
tree
10 the mute grave, unconscious. low he lies,
To wake no more, nor his deep slumbers
break,
Till the wide heavenss and spscioue spread
ing skies
Dissolsug, bid III immortal spirit wake !!
Then God shall call--snd man his cheering
voice
Shall hear--snd 10 the Prince of life reply,
Whose word makes deaths cold regions to
rejoice.
And man creates anew--no mote 10 die.
