DAILY CRESCENT.
AN EVENING REVERlE. ;. BY WIN. C


The summer day has elossd-sh ,t sun is set
The latest of whose train goes softly out
In the red West The green blade CT the ground
Has risen, and herds have croppedit the young twig
Has spread its plated tissues TO the SUM-
Flowers Of the garden and the waste have blown,
And withered seeds have fallen upon the soil
From bursting cells, and in their graves await
Their resurrection. Insects from the pools
Have filled The air awhile with humming wings,
That now are ST. forever painted moths
Have WANDERED the blue sky, and died again
The nl0ther bird hath broken for her brood
Their prison Shells or showed them from the nest
Plumed for their earliest fight In bright alcoyes,
In woodland cottages with barky walls,
In noisome cells of the tumultuous town,
Mothers have casp'd with JOY the new born babe.
Graves, by the lonely forest, by the shore
OF rivers and Of ocean, by the ways
OF the thronged city, have been hollow d out,
And fill and closed This day has parted friends,
That meier before were parted it hath knit
New friendships it hath seen the maiden plight
Her faith and trust, her peace to him who long
Hath wood and it hath heard from lips which late
Were eloquent of koge, the first harsh aoerd.
That told the welded one her peace was flown.
Farewell to the sweet sunshine One glad day
Is added now 10 childhOod's merry days,
And one calm day to those OF quiet age
Still the fleet hours on, and as lean
Amid the thckeDing darkness, lamps are lit
By those who watch the dead, and those who twlne
Flowers for the bride. The mother from the eyes
OF her sick infant, shades the painful light,
And sadly listens to his quick drawn breath.
o, thou great movement OF the universe,
Or change, or flight of time-for We are one:
That dearest silently this vlsibie scene
lntO nlgnI ShdilOW, anu lle streaming rays
OF starlight, whittier art thou bearing me -!
] feel the mighty current sweep me on,
Yet know not whittier. Man foTetels afar
The courses of the stars the very hour
He knows when they shall darken or grow bright,
Yet does the eclipse of sorrow of death
Come uniOre warned Who next of those love
Shall pass from life, Sadder yet shall fall
From vntue Strife with foes, or bitter strife
With friends, OF shame and general scOTn of men,
Which who can bear? Orthe fierce rack of pain,
Lie they within my path Or shall the years
Push me with soft and nOffensiye pace,
Into the Silly twilight of my age?
Or do the portals of another life,
Even now, while am glOrying in my strength,
Impend around me? o beyond that bourne,
In the vast cycle of being, which begins
At the broad threshold, with what fairy forms
Shall the great law of change and progress clOthe
Its woTkin IS Genty-so have good men taught
Gently, and without grief, the old shall glide
Into the new, the eternal flow of things
Like bright river of the fields of heaven,
Shall journey onward in perpetual peace.
