THE LIGHT AT HOME.

The light at home, how bright II beams
When evening shades around us fall;
And from the lattice Iaf 1t CLEANS,
To love, and rest and comfort cell.
When wearied with the tolls Of day.
And strife for glory, gold or fame,
How sweet to seek the quiet way,
Where loving lips will lisp our name,
Around the light at home.
When through the dark and stormy night,
The wayward wanderer hOmeward hies
How cheering is that twinklihg light,
Which through tho forest gloom he spies.
1t is the light at home; he feels
That loving hearts will greet him there,
And softly through the bosom steales
The JOY and love that Danish care
Around the light at home.
The light at home, whcne'er at last
1t greets the seaman through the storm;
He feels no more the chilling blast
That beats upon his manly form.
Long years upon the sea have fed,
Since Mary gave her parting kiss,
But the sad tears which then she shed
Will nea be paid with rapturous bliss,
Around the light at home.
"rhc light ofhome! how still and sweet
1t peeps from yonder cottage door
The weary laborcr 70 greet
When the rough tolls of day arc DER.
Sad is the soul that does not know
The blessings that the beams impart,
The cheerful hopes and joys that flow,
And tighten up the heaviest heart
Around the light ut home,
