SATURDAY NIGHT.

SIk Shi~h
Sweet to the soul the parting ray,
That ushers placid evening in
When with the still expiring day,
The Ssbbath's peaceful hours begin;
How grateful TO the anxious breast,
The sacred hours OF holy rest.
Hove the blush ofvefnai bloom.
Then morning giids nights sulien tear
And dear TO me the mournful gloom
of Au,umn, /" Sabbath Of the year,"
But purer pleasure, joys sublime,
Await the dawn Of Holy TINE.
Hush'd is the tumult Of the day,
And worldly cares and business cease
While soft the vesper breeses play,
To hymn the glad return Of peace,
0 season blest, o nonents given,
To turn the vagrant thoughts to Heaven,
, What though involved in luried night,
The ioveliest charms Of nature fade
Yet mid the gloom can heavenly light,
With Joy the eontri,e soul pervades
o then Great Source Of light divine,
With beams ETHEREAL, gladden. mine.
Oft 40 these hallowed hours shall come,
O raise my Thoughts from earthly things,
AAd bear ne to my heavenly home
On living Faiths immortal wlngs--
Pill the last CLEAN OF life decay
In one eternal SABBATH DAY!
