TITS GOOD TO BE HERE

The following touching lines were written by Herbert
Knowles at the age if mistake not OF fourteen iHe
scene is grave yard the time the evening twilight
Metbinks it is good to be here:
If thou wilt. let US bud--hut for whom
Nor Elios nor Moses appear
Rut the shadows of eve that encompass Tie gioom'
The abole Of The dead and tire place oI the TOMB
Shall we buila to ambition? Ah!"lo!
Atrighted he shrinketh away;
For see they would PIN him below
To small narrow cave, and begir with cold clay
To the meanest Of reptiles peer and prey.
To Beauty? An! no; she fovgets
The charms that she welded before;
Nor knows the foul wora as he ires
The skin which, but yesterday, fools could adore
For The smootfncs held The tint which 1t wore.
Shall we bpiI6 TO the purple of pride,
The trappings which dZep the proud?
Alas !thay all laid aside.
And here's neither dress nor adornnent aloWea' ,.
But the long winding and the fringe oi The Souu
To Riches? A'as IT is in vain,
Who hid, in their turu, have been hid;
The treasures are squandered again
And here in the grave are al metals loro'g,
But the tinscl that shines or the dark cofin aa
To the Measures that nirtf can Afford, ..#
The rsve the laugh and the Jner!
All! here is a plentiful beard,
But fhe guests are all mute their pitful cheer,
And noae but the worm is 4 reTaieT here
Shall we build to affection and love:
An, no thev have yythered and died,
Or fcd with the spirit above:
Friends brothers, and sisters, are laid side by sac,
Net more have saluted, and none have replied
Unto Sorrow: The dead cannot gTieFs,
Not . sob not sigh. meets mine ear,
Which compassion itself could relieve;
All swcetly they sumber, nor hope. love or tear
Peace peace, is the watchwoEd, the only one mere.
Unto death. 10 whom monarchs must bow!
All no for his aplre is known
And here there are trophies enow;
Beneath the cold dead, and around the dark stone,
Are the signs OF spectre that none may d!5oWh.
Tie first tabernacle TO HoFE we will build
And look for the sleePers around US to rise;
The second to FAITH, which nsures II tuihled;
And the third to the LAMB Of the great sacnhce,
Who bequeahed them US both when he rose TO the skies

How beautiful is morning, and yet how few,
comparatively are there who enjoy its lovelness
as they should DO. How delightful is it when day
is young and nature awaking from its sumbers re-
freshed and regenerated, upliits its brow decked
with nnumerable gems, to saunter forth amid the
green fields and catch the passing breeze that comes
with balmy odours on its wing. Before the hustle
and sultriness of noon-tdc have arrived, how re-
freshing is it to sally forth and listen to the orsons
that spring from glen and from hill side where the
ifea!heTedsongsters uplift their voices in thankful
ness to their Creator-Mid-day may bring its ex-
citements and evening its conversational pleasures,
but it is in the morning alone that the spirit can re-
tire within itself and amid the eloquent stiffness Of
nature, revei in the luxury of free and uninter-
Irupted intercourse with that Being whose power is
every where and whose goodness has clothed the
earth with beauties with mantle. II is when
the early sunlight first kisses the mountain tops and
decks each shrub and tree with diamond lustre
that the Imagination, refreshed by "nature's soft
rcstorer' balmy sleep" scars abroad, and loves to
ningle with the elements peopIing them with its
fairy creations and making the deepest solitudcs
instinct with life.--BoH .fparica
