THE WORM AND THE FLOWER.

~ }. MONTGOMERY.
You're spinning for my lady, Wo.m,
Silk garments for the fair;
you're spinning rainbows for form
More beautiful than air:
when alr IS bright with sun-beams,
Aud morning mists arise
From woody wales, and mountain streams
10 blue autumnsl skies
you're training for my lady. Flower
You're opening for my love
nc glory Of her summer bower,
While sky-larks soar above.
Go, twlne her locks with rose buds,
Or breathe upon her breast
"nile zephyrs curl the water foods,
And rock the halcyons nest
But Oh there is another worm
Ere long will visit her.
Aud revel on her lovely form
In the dark sepulchre
Yet from that sepulchre shall spring
A flower as sweet as this;
Hard by the nightingale shall sing,
Soft wings It's petals kiss.
Frail embiems Of frail beauty. ye,
In beauty who would irusll
Since all that charms must be
Consigned TO worms aud dust.
Yet, like the flower that decks her tomb,
Her soul shall quit the clod.
And shine IN anaran,hine bloom
Fast by the throne of God
