HOME.

HOME.
O, there ere scenes dsyineIy fair,
Ger spread with smiles Of beauty rare,
And spots Of splendid glory where
Our steps In gladness roam.
We've thought Of many palace grand,
We've dreamed Of many happy strand,
But, sh, they're nothing 10 the land
Where smiles our natal homo.
It's this that cheers the sailors soul,
while tempests round him widely howl,
while lightning darts from pole 10 pole,
Aud guilds The raging foam.
Ia dreams he sses his biiihe fresidc,
Before his eyes sweet phantoms glide,
OF those he left beyond the tide,
Where smiles his rustic homo.
Though placed In distant desert Wild,
And Of the storm the hardy child,
Though healthy hills are round IL piled
And iowly be the dome,
Though poverty have dwelling there,
Add not u scene Is bland or fair,
We cherish still with miser care,
Our own beloved home.
Around our hearts are there eniwined,
The faircst, sweetest flowers We find,
With mystic ehaiss Of love 70 bind
The hearts Of those who roam,
Oyesi a magic baDc Is there,
Though vicwless as a 6eeting cir,
Which binds our hearts In union fair,
Within our hslIoWed home.
But an The future DER Il fIes,
And all It's cherished beauty dies,
While wFapt In ruin dsTkly lies,
The ones beloved domei
Our fathers gone, our mothers dead,
Our friends and lovers lowly laid
within the graves dark lOooly bed,
Have left no happy home.
Still there's better land on high,
Where flowers of glory never die,
Like these bsSscztk iffs's cloudy sky,
IN which our steps shall roam;
When time with al her dreams is psst.
And death has spent his whitening blast,
o sweeter Tar IN Heaven st last
Wen end 30 endless hosse.

We long once more TO hear the kind

loved even ~ our own life. When
the waves Of affection roll over us, We
long for the rest Of home, and feel tina.

we can find that rest. which the wea-
~ oues enjoy there. II success crown
the plans Of our life. il we rise to emf

plausc among our associates, there is
q kind Of satisfaction IN It. But the

for some dear ones 10 share the honor.
and the Joy. And here again the
heart turns to home as its resting place,
even in its joyfulness.
The longest life does not destroy the
love Of home. II seems even to in
crease with length Of years; and home
becomes doubly the resting place Of
him who has longed walked the weary
way Of fife. But there arc times when
we are not perfectly happy even in
our homes-when the soul will no,
