Through earth or air or sky
Twill still elude my eager grasp,
Twill still my search defy.
In every unfrcquented cline,
In every wel-known spot,
Eve sought ia vain the prize to find
One thing that changes not
They told me earth was beautiful;
A garden, full of flowers,
Ofscented shrubs and pleasant plants,
OF vines and myrtle bowers.
| thought so till | saw the bloom
Upon the roses fade,
And marked the dry and withered leaves
That strowed the wintry glade.
They told me that the sunshine slept
Upon earth's verdant hills,
And sparkIed in the impid course
Of ripping mountain rils.
knew not that the glowing ray
Must pale, as night come on,
And darkness shroud each fav'rite spot
The sun had shone upon.
They spoke of towers and palaces,
Ofdomes and gided ianes;
marked the ruins time had made,
And felt my search was vain.
In vain l've winged my rapid flight
TO earths remotest spot,
la vain l've sought my prize to lind
One thing that changes not.
They told me that the mind of man
Was noble in its aim,
ENDOWED with gifts which angels share,
With powers which gods might claim;
Immortal in its destiny,
1t could not know decay,
A spark from heaven can meier go out,
However faint its ray.
Elate with hope, Ihover'd near
At last my prize to find;
But ah, the mind of changing man
Is fckler than the wind.
For prejudice and wrong have warp'd
Those minds 1ve dared to scan
Aud gihIed baubles change or mar
This better part of man.
They told me that the human heart
Knew strong and changeless ties;
That nought but death could break the links
OF kindred sympathies.

O'er every scene could fling;
E'en to an angels eye it seem'd
A pure and holy thing.
Yet time would quench-e5trangement chill

Through this worlds veal or woe.

Herself, her love forgot;
1t was almost the prize | sought
One thing that changes not,
They said that hope could cheer the soul
With an undying ray;
But have seen its light Ilume-
Grow palc-and fade away.
Obi earth has not one boon to give,
Within Its widest range,
That feels not times decaying touch,
That knows not blight or change.
III spread my wings and speed my flight
Back to my starry home,
Where kindred spirits chaunt their songs
To greet me as come.
Farewell, oh earth, in yonder sphere
Is cast my happier lot,
There ye may seek better world.
A world that changes not.
