coming on Of twilight is from the pen of LoSGrEL-

Slowly, slowly up the wall
steals the sunshine, steals the shade;
Even Nc damps begin to fall,
Evening shadows are displayed.
Round me, Ger me, everywhere
III the sky is giand with clouds,
And athwart tn evening air
Wheel the swallows home in crowds.
Shafts of sun 'hine { ON the West
Paint the dusky windows red
Darker shadows deeper rest,
Underneath and overhead.
Darker, darker, aud more wan
In my breast tbs shadows fall
Upward steals the life of man,
Az the sunshius from the wall
From the wall into the sky,
Prom the roof along the spirc
All, tn, souls Of those tina. die
Are but sunbeam, lifted higher.
