THE BOAT OF LIFE.
BY t. MOORE.

BY T. MOORE.
Let'stake this world as some wide scene,
Through which in frail but buoyant
boat,
With skies now rude, and now serene,
Together thou and l must float
Beholding oft on either shore,
Bright spots where we should love to
stay.
But time plies swift his flying oar,
And on we speed--away, away!
Should chill winds and rain come on,
Well raise our awning 'gainst the
shower,
Sit closer till the storm is gone,
And smiling wait SUMMER hour.
And if that SUMMER hour should shine,
Well know its brightness cannot stay,
And. happy while It's thine and mine,
Complain not when it fades away.
Thus reach we both, at last, that fall,
Down which Life's current all must
CO.
The dark. the brilliant, destined all
To sink into the void below.
Nor ev'n that hour shall want tie charms,
Ifside by side, still fond we keep, q
And calmly in each others arms,
Together link'd go down the steep.
