angry, that he thrust the I'D man out oil his tent,
and exposed him to all the e7 s OF the night, and

Written on an affecting instance Of Sudden Death

ratten on an affecting instance Of Sudden lieu
BY BERNARD BARTON.
Thou didst not sink by slow decay,
Like some who live the longest
But every tie was wrenched away,
Just when those ties were strongest.
A lot like thine may Justly make
The sanguine doubt Tomorrow
And, in the heart of others, wake
Alternate fear and sorrow
We'll may we fear for who can think
On thee, so lately living,
Loving and loved and yet not shrink
With somewhat of misgiving
Well may we mourn for cold indeed.
AS those, since death has found thee,
Must be the heart that does no, bleed
For thee, and those around thee.
A Daughter, Mother, Sister, Wife
AT neon, life smiled before thee,
The night brought natures mortal strife;
The day-deah's conquest DER thee.
How much was done in hours so few,
Hopes withered, hearts divided:
Joys, griefs, loves, fears, and feelings too
Stern death at once decided.
With thee tits over there are some,
Who, il mute CONSERVATION,
Fearfully shrink from hours to come,
OF heartfelt desolation,
While the dark tempest's terrors last,
We guess at evil round US:
The clouds dispense, we stand aghast;
Its ravages confound US:
The lhunder's roar, the ligh,ning's CLEAN
Might seem uiSion only;
But when we knov, we do not dream,
The stiffness Oh, how lonely
One hope in such an hour is left,
And may this hour reveal it;
He who hath thus OF bliss berels
The heart, has power to heal 1t.
Our dearest hopes He would not crush
And pass Hnheeded by them;
Nor bid orr eyes with sorrow gnshs
Unless his love could dry thems
A bruised reed he will not break;
But hearts that bow before him,
Shall own his Mercy while they ache,
And gratefully adore hims
