But woman like, she pretty soon got over it,

Thus matters stood another year passed by,
And Sam returned; but oh, how changed from him
Whom once knew; That bright and sparkling eye
Is deep and sunken; and its glance is dim.
The smile is sadness, and The slow reply,

Proclaim that life is wasting and declare,
The seal Of death--a broken heart is there.

Every word from the disciple, whom Jesus loved,
Ishews how much there was TO love in the whole
character and disposition of that disciple. Some
may object to the passage at the head of this com
municaon, as what would not be expected from
him who leaned on our Savour's bosom, Let them
then think this again, and consider whether the
want Of affection to their fellow christians does not
afford convincing proof of their want Of love 10 the
common Maker and Father of them all for he who
loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can
he love God whom he hath not seen?

CHAPTER VIII.


How many hearts are withered in their prime,
Crushed by the worlds ingratitude alone;
Sent to the grave despalring, ere their time
Their worth unvalued, and their truth unknown;
An unsuspecting faith their only crime
How many spirits, sorrowing, have flown
From earth o'erburthened with their heavy woes,
The Cod, who thus ordained it only knows.

Twas thus with Sam. He died as many die
Victims of this proud worlds unworthiness
Whose hearts have chords within them tuned too

None but those like them, can feel sympathy

But yet good feelings are not quite so plenty
That can spend them, where not one in twenty

On which he died-In agony he lay
Striving in vain, 40 ainst the awful might

With the last, lingering throb Of lies decay,
To join the host Of those who were, what we,
This moment, are ;-and are, what we must be-
V.
Ooh, Ills fearful thing; to look upon
form which once with health and beauty glowed
Just when the soul is Fastening to be gone,
Fo ever, from its perishing abode
When the great veil hangstrembling, half wi hdrawr
Which from its vision, shrouds the bar of God
And to the parting spirit, soon will give
That view, which mortals cannot see, and live.)

The drops Of moisture on his brow appear
| Like dew upon the marble.-The low sigh
Short and repeated, and, the frequent tear,
The film hat gathers DER his freezing eye,
Proclaim the wearied spirit to be near
Its goal; and speak the mortal agony
A moment it was dreadful--but tits past.
One struggle ;-only one-t is the last.
