THE CHILD AT PRAYER.
IT was summers eve, the rosy light

IT was summers eve, the rosy light
Had faded from the sky,
Ard stars came twinkling pure and brlghtj
Through the blue arch on high;
And the western breezes softly stole.
To kiss the weeping flower,
And nature wore her sweetest smile,
To bless the twilight hour.
There sat within curtaincd room
A mother young and fair
VIVA, voice comes softly through the loom:
'T is chldhood's voice in prayer!
A chcrub boy is kneeing now,
Beside that mother knee
For she had taught the child 10 bow
Before the Deity.
A father on the distant deep,
A sister slumbering near,
A babe upon the molhcs's breast,
And that kind mother dear:
For every living thing he loves,
His prayer ascends to heaven,
And for himself he humbly asks
Each sin may be forgiven.
And in after years when grief
Shall bow his spirit down,
And when the cold and bitter world
Shall meet him with frown,
And when allured from virtues path
He treads dangerous way.
Oh he will turn TO the best hour
When he first knelt TO pray.
And the kind hand which then was laid
Upon his siken hair,
And the soft voice which taught him frs
His simple wo:ds prayer,
Will come again with thrilling power
To still his pulses wild.
And lure him back in that dark hour
As slnless as a child.
The prayer is DER, the last fond kiss
BY that fond mother given
But rises not from scene like this,
That childish prayer to heaven?
II does il does, an angels wing
Has born its tone with joy,
And The earnest blessing which il sought
Comes on the sleeping boy
