P O e r Y
THE TWO ANGELS.

u The IWO ANGELS.
One sunny day in bright July,
When Beauty all the world o'erspread,
An Angel left the realms on high,
To watch beside baby bed.
A little cherub, fresh from Heaven,
And exiled from its home awhile,
To shed on earth the lustre given, r:
To chase its gloom, in woman's smile.
Poor little visitant below,
So frail, so helpless, and SO fair,
Well might it claim, amid the woe,
The wrongs of life, an angels care.
But, fast the hours of childhood flew,
And womanhood's fair dawning came
The Angel then to heaven Withdrew
The guerdon of his task to claim.
"For where" he thought ''the need to stay
Through life, guardian and guide,
To one whose footsteps cannot stray,
From vistue's path, whate'er betide!
One in whose pure and gentle soul,
No erring fancy e'er could rest,
The magnet of whose heavenly goal
Lies in her own unsuilied breast"
His trust fulfiled-the maid, whose birth
Gave theme for this unworthy lay,
Remains, to act her part on earth,
The Angel of some mortars way.
Whose footsteps she shall lead, below,
Kind Heaven, that gave her, must decide,
And I say nothing-but-I know
A bard who sadly needs guide.

This was said by an old man whom we
