MOVE ON.


The march of life should never stay:
All things should onward rend;
Men should not prolOng progression's sway,
But strive to move and mend
The winters move in depth OF ocean,
She streamsalong the dales,
And rivulets with onward motion,
Through sweet and verdant wales:
Move on
The clouds move gently through the sky,
The earth rolls ever on;
Time swiftly in its course runs by,
And years pass one BY ONT:
Man, too, should strive TO follow (hem
in this, their onward way,
permitting Il ought the tide to stem,
But ever, day BY day,
Move on!
Men may be wiser il they strive
More sirtp Jls il they will;
And who within the world would thrive,
Must aim at higher still.
Let bigots stand by doctrines old,
4 The wise will pass thcmhy,
Weak minds will cling with subtle hold,
But strong ones yaIiantly
Move on
d.ine the water rolling 10 the ocean,
Down mountains filed on high
Like clouds forever in commoii0n
That moves across the sky
Will we forever onward press,
b. The fetterless and free;
And dccming virtue happiness,
Our watchword ever be
Move on

LOVE TmAT DIEru NoT.

Love not alone the gay.
The beautiful, the bright;
For youth will (ade away.
Like day beams into night.
dsut love the heart THAT'S pure,
How plain soe'cr the place;
Shch love will long endure
Such love cannot debase.
Love not alone on earth
Those Transient things ofliic,
Who, like the raipbow's birth,
Soon fade midst shadowy strife.
But love the power that made
All that to mani given
Whose spirit doth pcrvade
The universal heaven.
Love all things great and snail,
From man to tiny flower;
Created were they MI
BY an Almighty power.
For "God is Love-" we know,
Whate'er may be our lot;
In life, then, let us SOW
The Love that dieth not.
