POETRY.

YIELD NOT TO DARK DESPAIR.
Hast thou one heart that loves thee,
In this dark world of care,
Whose gentle smile approves thee,
Yield not to dark despair
One rose whose fragrant blossom
Blooms but for thee alone;
One fond con6ding bosom
Whose love is all thine own!
One gentle star to guide thee,
And bless thee on thy way,
That cen when storm betide thee,
Still lends its gentle ray!
One chrystal fountain sprnging
Within life's desert waste,
Whose waters still are bringing
Refreshments to thy taste.
One tuneful voice to cheer thee,
When sorrow has distrrst;
One breast when thou art weary,
Wherein thy head to rest.
Till that sweet rose is faded,
And cold that heart so warm,
Till clouds thy star have shaded,
Heed not the passing storm!
Till the kind voice that blest thee,
All mute in death does lie,
And the fount that oft refreshed theo,
To thee is ever dry
Thou hast one tie to bind thee
To this dark world of care:
Then let not sorrow blind thee
Yield not to dark despair
