WHAT life ike picture in little" is this by HoeD
'f he> >"torrent of rugged humanity" that sets to-
ward an English poor house, at sound of The Work.
House Clock Remark, too reader the beautiful
sentiment with which the extract closes:
"sIhere's mutnur in the air,
And noise in every street.
The marmur OF many tongues,
The noise Of many feet,
While round the work house door
The aboring classes flock:
For whyt the Overseer Of the Poor
ls setting the work house clock.
"Who de es not hear the tramp
OF thousands speeding along,
OF either sex, and various stamp,
Sickly, crippled, and strong,
Walking, hmping, creeping,
From court and alley and lane
But allin one direction sweeping,
Like rivers that seek the main,
"Who does not see them sally
From mill, and garret, and room,
In lane, and court, and alley,
From homes in Poverty's lowest valley,
Furnished with shuttle and loom
Poor slaves of Civiization's galley
And in the road and footways sally,
As if for the Day of Doom
Some, of hardly human furIn,
Stunted, crooked, and crippled by t,il;
Dlngy with smoke, and rust and Oil,
And smirched beside with vicious toll,
Clustering mastering, all in a swarm,
Father, mother, and careful child,
Looking as If it had aeuer smiled;
The seamlstress lean, and weary and wan,
With only the ghosts of garments on
The weaver, her sallow neighbor,
The grim and sooty artisan
Every soul-chi'd, woman or man,
Who hves-or dies-by labor!
"At last, before that door
That bears SO many knock,
Ere ever it opens 10 Sick or Poor,
Like sheep they huddle and flock
And would that all the Good and Wise
= Could see the million of hollow eyes,
With gleanl derived from Hope and the skies
Upturned to the Work House Clock
"Oh that the Parish Powers,
Who regulate Labors hours,
The daily amount of human trial,
Weariaess, pain, and self denial,
Would turn from ihe artificial dial
That striketh ten or eleven,
And go, for once, by that older one
That stands in the light Of natures sun,
And takes its time from Heaven I"
