A WINTER EVENING RHYME.


The Frost had smitten the hill tops,
And the fields blushed where he came,
And the torch OF Autumn's Angel
Had set the woods afame.
No longer the dusty roadside
Did the golden road adorn,
No more the feet Of the west. wind
Danced on the tasselled corn.
Birds Of passage sailing southwark,
Like ships along the skies,
Seemed TO bear away our sunshine
To their tropical Paradise.
The sunlight fed DER the mountains,
The day had nearly ceased,
And the waves of the twilight shadows
Were flowing towards the east
The dying sun with his glories
Had robsd the meadow sward,
AS the prophet threw of his mantle
To go before the Lord.
Along the rivers margin,
Not knowing where or why,
Went forth two loving beings
Went forth my love and /.
And her gaze so C lmly earnest,
With Joy my soul did thrill,
As fash fallen out Of cloud-rift
Gladdens the snowy hill.
She raised her dropping eyelids
With sad and mild surprise,
For she saw the Sable Angel
That was unseen to my eyes.
The crickets were singing loudly
At the birth Of the fair young moon,
And the winds with the rustling cedars
Were weaving mournful tune.
We heard; all seemed silent,
As the pulse Of Nature had stopped
To catch the tremulous accents
That from her dear lips dropped.
O,words so few and precious!
Yenever can depart
Till the last clinging fancy
Shall leave this beating heart.
And though among the living
Her face no more Is seen,
And the kindly SHOWS are keeping
Her grave sod warm and green.
As sit I'm my room by the nre,
This wintry night, and cold,
Her presence quietly gliding
Comes near me as OF old.
feel her hands light pressure,
| see her features fair,
And beneath that look so sanity
breathe another air.
Thanks, Father, that still thou sendest
Some glad beatitude,
Some sweet-vOiced soothing presence,
Some messenger Of good
That TO every suffering spirit
Some Turing phantom calls,
And Hope and Memory open
Their angel-haunted halls
