NIGHT.


Night 10 the time Tor rest,
How sweet, when labors close,
To gather round an aching breast
Tie curtain IT repose,
Stretch the tired limbs, and lay the head
Down on our own delightful bed
Night is the time for dreams,
The gay romance ofl life,
When truth that IS, and truth that seems,
Mix IN fantastic strifcI
Alb! visions, less bcguing fac
Than waking dreams by daylight are!
Night is The time for toll;
Toploagh the classic field,
Intent to lind the buried spoil
Its wealthy burrows yield;
Til sii ~ ours that sages taught,
That poets sang, and heroes wrought.
Night is the time to weep;
To wet with unseen tears
Those graves e memory, where sleep
The Joys of other years,
Hopes, chat where angels at their birth.
Bot died when young like things Of ear,h.
Night is the time to wsic',
Ger oceans dark expsnse,
10 hail The P'eia'les, OF catch
The full mooh's earliest glance,
That brings into the home sict mind
All We have loved and left hehud.
Night ]. the time for care.
Rrn'dng on hUuts rispent,
10 see tha ~ cfte OF ID spar
Gone 10 our lonely teat;
IiEe Brntus, 'mids. his slumherine host.
sumnon'd TO die by Cx;a,'s ghos,.
Nigh is the time TO think;
When, from the eye, the soul
Takes fight, and, on the utmost brink
OF yonder starry pole,
Dscerns beyond the abyss of night
The d'wn of uncreAted light.
Nigh, i the time to pray;
Our Saviour Of withdrew
Todesert mountains far away:
30 will bis follower do.
Steal from The tbrong to haunis untrod.
And commune there alone with COD.
Night IS the time for death,
when all around in peace,
Ca'"'iy TO yield he weary breath,
From sin and suffering cease,
ahihk OF Heavens bliss, and give the sign
