MY MOTHERS BIBLE.
by O. p. MORRIS.

This book Is all that's left me now
Tears will unbiddcn start;
With fa'tcrins lip and thlobbing brow,
press it TO my heart
Tor many generations past
Here is our family tree;
Ny mothers hand this Bible claspcd,
She dying, gave il me,
All, wei do / remember those
Whose names these records bear;
Who round the hcarth.stonc used TO close
After the evening prayer.
And speak of what these pages said,
In tones my heart would thrill;
Though they are with the silent dead,
Here they are living still.
My father read this holy hook,
To brothers, sisters dear!
How calm was my poor mothers look.
Who learned Gods word to heat,
Her angel face, see it vet!
What thrilling memories come
Again that little group il met
Within the walls OF home!
Thou trIcSt friend man ever knew,
Thy comstancy I've tried;
When all were false found thee true.
Ny counsellor aud guido.
The mines of earth no treasure give
That couli this volume buy;
In teaching me thc way to live,
1t taught me how to die
