Traced by the brighter hue,
And liyeEer growth it gives,-itsef unseen
It Hows through Aowery meals,
Glajdening the herbs which On It's browse,
IT, quiet beauty feeds sz.Ss
The aiders that O'ershade it with their boughs.
Gently It murmurs by
The village church yard Its low, plsin,iye tone,
4 dirge-hke melody,
Fur worth and beauty modest as its own.
More gaily now it sweeps
By the small school house in the sunshine bright
And DER tie pebbles leaps,
Like happy hearts by holy days made delight

H. characters hich they who run may read,
The chara, OF gentleness,
We're bat its still small voice aow'd t. plead.

Won by the charities that gladden. i'fe'

And human happiness be undisturb'd;-
But Egypt would turn pale,
Were her still Niles o'erhowing bounty curbed!
