n THE DEATH OF THEIR DAUGHTER.
She glanced into this world to see
A sample of our misery"
Her tender spirit sigh'd, TO view
30 much Of pain, and grief, and woe.
She tasted of life's bitter cup,
Refus'd to drink the portion up;
Then turn'd her little head aside,
Disguised with the taste, and died"
"Sweet babe no more, but seraph now,
Before the throne, behold her bow;
Her soul, enlarged to angels size,
Joins in the triumph's of the skies ;"
"Adores the grace that brought her there,
Without a wish, without a care;
That wash'd her soul in Calvry's stream,
And shorten'd life's distressing dream"
" Short pain. short grief, dear babe were thine.
New joys eternal and divine"
Then why should for Susan mourn,
Since Christ the Savior call'd her home.
o she is there, a seraph bright,
Ranging the fields of pure delight;
And with a golden harp in hand,
She joins in praise, the heavenly band.
No more, my lovely child, no more,
Shall behold thee as before;
Thy ssinted soul Of heavenly birth,
snow too pure to dwell on earth.
Farewell, sweet babe, till time shall cease
Go dwell with Christ, 10 perfect peace;
And on that bright celestial morn,
Thou shalt arise, a glorious form.
What beauty then, will deck thy crown,
What glory beaming from the throne;
More lovely than on earth could be,
OIL will weep no more for thee.

LET Us PRAY.

By the author ofthe Breeze in the Desert
Let Us pray when morn's first light
Plerceth through the clouds of night;
While the flowers are dewey vet,
Ere the twinkling stars are set;
Ere the strife and stir begin,
- OF This world Of woe and sin;
For BILE ssing on the day,
To its Maker-let Us pray
Let Us pray when over heaven
Comes the lovely light Of even;
,Whenthe distant yesper hymn,
Rising through the twilight dim,
On the evening wind sweeps by,
Like an air-harp's melody,
When the distant sea is gray,
At that soft hour-let>uS pray!
Let rs pray when winter drear
Cioseth In the vanished year;
Wraps IN snow the lofty hill.
Chains in FROST the murmuring rill;
When let loose, the chilling breeze
: Sweeps the last leaves from the trees;
When the summer flowers decay,
Looking on Ihem-let Us pray
Let Us pray around the hearth,
Check the voice Of childish mirth;
Ere they 90 to rest in peace,
Bid the infant prattle cease,
J, Teach the spotless heart to rise
With its evening sacrifice
While the artless prayer they say,
With our children-let US pray
Let Us pray! when slumber flies,
And the sad tear dims our eyes;
When there j. no voice nor sound
In the midnight stiffness round;
When gloomy fears foreboding start,
Clouding DER the mourning heart;
For bright Hopes consoling ray;
In that silence-let US pray
Let rs pray! when at the last
We and sorrow shall have passed
When around our dying bed
Signs are brcaIhed and tears are shed
In that hour Of awful thought,
When the things Of earth arc nought,
Ere the spirit flies away,
For Heavens mercy-let US pray!
