Poetry.

From the Religious Souvenir.
g AGRICULTURE c. W. EVEREST.
How best the Farmers simple life =
How pure the joy il yields
Far from the worlds tempestuous strife,
Free, mid the verdant fields
When morning comes, with healthful hue,
Ger the fair fields away,
His footsteps brush the silvery dew,
To greet the welcome day.
When Soils first beam in glory glows,
And blithe the sky lark's song,
Pleased, TO his toll the Farmer goes,
With cheerful steps along.
While noon broods DER the sultry sky,
Aud sunbeams fierce are cast,
Where the cool streamlet wanders by,
He shares his sweet repast.
When twiligh,'s gentlest shadows fall,
Along the darkening plain,
He lists his faithful wa,ch-dog's call,
To warn the listening train.
Down the green lane young hurrying feet,
Their eager pathway press;
His lov'd ones come in Joy TO greet,
And claim their sire's caress.
Then, when the evening prayer is said;
And Heaven with praise is blest,
How sweet reclnes his weary head
On slumber's couch Of rest
Oh, we who run in folly's race,
To win worthless prize
Learn from the simple tale we trace,
Where true contentment lies
Flo, Monarch fash'd with glory's pride
Whom venal hauerers sing,
HE to the freeborn farmers side,
And learn to be King
