A SKETCH.
"Behold the pi cture-is it Hke?-hke Uhom.' ii

In childhood's vernal morn, when life
With varied joy and beauty rife,
To the charmed infants wondering eyes,
Seemed like primeval Paradise;
When every creatures gladstone voice
Bade his wide sympathy rejoice,
Or breathing forth note Of woe,
Made tears Of sad compassion flow;
He gazed and listened; soon he heard,
What seemed more than earthly word
Strangely it touched his childish ear,
But gave his heart no dreadful fear,
For fond mothers godly care,
Had tun'd her infants soul to prayer;
And at the Oft repeated word,
lie cried thy servant heareth Lord!
And then by faith in Samue's God,
Safely youths dangerous path he trod.
The days of infancy were gone,
The time Of care and tolls rolled on,
When wild ambition goads to fame
Or whclms her votaries in shame;
Wealth, pleasure, grandeur, lease be,tows,
Or dooms to lowliness and woes;
Gazing on all the various scene,
With pious thought and soul serene,
From earthly joys his hope withdrew,
And keeping Heavens delights in view,
He fearless kept the way Of Truth,
Which he had trod through all his youth;
And mid the worlds vicssitude,
IIe prayed while fast in faith he stood.
lf Joy abound or ills betide,
Oh, God Of Moses be my guide!
Lies MONDAY passed. Its evening hour,
Gave witness to the holy power,
OF that unshaken constancy-
Which from ear,h's snares had kept him free,
And faithful still to him, whose word
Ne'er faiIeth-to the Righteous Lord
on as his memory would stray,
Backward upon his pilgrim way,
With holy gratitude he cried,
God for the righteous will provide.
And now at last the hour was come,
When to its glorious rest-its home
His prisoned spirit should DEPART
Oh! then how g|owod his grateful heart.
My God my Saviour!-ihen he cried,
Thou who for me was cruciied,
Sustained by thee, thy curse I've borne,
Kept by thy grace, thy name Two won,-
lis by thy word-thy matchless might,
Tha, have feebly Tough, the fight.
Through thee alone, escaped my foes,
And now thou cal'st me to repose,
Thou conqucror upon my brow
Wouldst place The victor garland now;
