The W)Hraer. -''lt Is very lonely, M.
Uher," murmure fair haired, lovely
girl, as she rested upon the sofa one eve.
ming" it is lonely now, and the nights
seem very long. Shall | never see father
moreW "Yes, my love, you will see hun
again in brighter world than this n"But
this is fair word;n said the little girl,
Il love TO run and play IN the sunshine;
and pick the water crosses from the brooks
and when the weather is little warmer,
shall 60 down and gather the blue eyed
violet, that father said was like me-
Too like, fear" SAID the mother, as
the crystal tear trembed on the dropping
lid. But my dear chiII, there is iairer
world than this, where flowers never fade
where clouds never hide the light OF that
glorious sky; for the glory of HIM whose
name is Love, beams brightly and forever
in those golden courts; the trees which
grow on the banks of the river which wa
tcrs that blessed place, never fade as they
do in this world, and when friends meet
there, they will be parted no more, but
will sing hymns OF praise 10 God and the
Lamb forever"
And shall | 60 to that happy place
when | die! and will you 90 home with
me? " said the little chlId. YES" said the
mother, d" we shall both 60 in COTS own
time, when he calls US from this life, wa
shall dwell in his presence"
1t was little while, and the mother
bent over the grave Of this pale flower of
intellect, wiIhercd by the untimeIy frost
of death. But was she alone when in twi |
light shade she sat upon the grassy mound
where the deep and yearnIng hopes OF
that fond heart were gathered IN obllVlous !
silence? Oh no. The soft and slivery tones
Of buried love whispered in the breeze |
that flied the dropping flowers o,ercharg
ed with dewy tears OF night The diamond |
stars that one by one, came iorlh upon /
their shining watch, seemed baamng with .
the light OF that deafness flame, which
burned undimad upon the Utmost shrine
Of her heart, aud she enjoyed, IN the holy
hours of solitude, that comnunIon OF
pure spirits, which our exalted faith ca
bestow.
