MY LITTLE COUSINS,
CalIic.

Sdh7lSs
Twixt low sobs Good hyc' said
Two pale lids shut softly down
Two small hands together laid,
And the dearest ever known
or young children lay alone
BY her bed the Angels stood
When our eyes grew dim with tears,
The deep, eternal eyes Of Goa
We're smiling calmly into hers,
A little baby OF three years!
Three sweet times the maple woods
Crimsoncd in the sun and rain;
Three sweet times the lovely buds
Walked on summer hill, and plain
She will never wake again
Since little dainty thing,
On her mothers arm she lay,
Smiling back upon the Spring,
from the tire sllholl Of the May
That the rcd June crossed that day.
Never any bird that flew
Had wilder song than she
Never any flower that grew,
Any dainty bud that blew,
Was Il purcr mystery,
Than her little life to me.
Ellie.
Little Babe with folded hands
And the smile of God shut in
That thou last didSt look upon
In the undiscovered lands.
Are there any flowers for me I
Any sign whereby to know
Where the sp"tlcss lilies blow
Which about thy brows see
Little babe, in slumbcr deep
Never touched of mortal sin;
BY the grcuncst aurels won
would give them for thy sleep
And thy stainless purity
With the world forever done !
