From Repentance, 6y Mary Anne Brorn.}
And this our life, exemp, from public haunt
Finds tongues trees, books IN the running brooks,
Sermons in soncs, and good in every Shak9eare
Let MS 20 to the hail. where the red wine flows,
And roses and myrtles are gaily wreathed
Where many check with it's deep Joy giuws,
And the sweet. sweet music of lutes is breathed.
Ere morn-sg comes, the scene Will be fled;
Faded will be the dream of bliss;
The song will be huslied, and the roses dead,--
Is there nought to be learned by this,
Let US 20 to tho shore, where the sen shells l;c
And theeund with weeds and wrecks is strown;
Where the rocks the cold waves fly,
And make their holisw and suilen moan
Those dcsolate things were cast away
BrOm the false breast OF the raging
And there thoy sadly left to decay
Is there not Il lesson III these?
Lot us 90 to the wood where The hawthorn blows
When its leaves i'll the soft spring time are green
When its mantle around it the woodbine throws,
And the pcarly tlowerets peep betweci-
y, we shall find moral in them,
Thus with the leaves dcceitfuy twinsi;
Decking awhile the thorny STEM,
Yet dropping off with the first rude wind.
Let US 60 she fields, when tho storm is DER,
.,nd tho rain drops sparkle like stars at eve,
When the thunder peal is heard no more,
And the oceans bosom hath ceased to heave,
Then we shall see the rainbow bright:
From the gloomy clouds 81 the sunshine wFough,
Shedding all things its coored light
Something, surely, by this is taught.
Let us 60 to the graves. where our loved ones arc,
And let us choose the midnight time,
When the heavens are glorious with many star,
And silence and grandeur raise thought sublime
And we look from the mouldering dust,
Upto the cope of the heauteous sky;
SO shall our spirits ascend, in their trust,
To the Holy Spirit that dwelleth Oh high.
