ON THE DEATH OF E.. F......... .,
tone home those loving azure eyes,
Under the earth lie deep,
Aud |, beneath the summer skies,
Bend o'er thy grave and weep.
mourn. but not for thee, dear one,
Called from the worlds rough ways
Thine endless bliss is now begun,
weep for other days.
Shall e'er feel those joys again,
knew ere thou vert dead
My heart is wither'd-throbs my brain,
My brightest hope hath fed.
Yet still would not break the deep
Last slumber, on thee thrown,
While DER thy form bend and weep,
That am left alone
The light II life to me is gone,
Twas dsrken'd on that fatal morn:
Ere yet thy race was we'll begun,
Thy Saviour called thee To crown.
| may NOT mourn thine early doom,
Nor wish thee rescued from the tomb,
For now to realms OF brightest light,
Thy seraph soul hath winged It's flight
A mothers heart may give parting sigh,
Tho hope looks up and soars beyond the ky
There may we meet with all the ransomed throng,
And praise Immsnuel's name, III endless song

WHY BE UNHAPPY?

What's the use to be unhappy,
What's the use TO fume and fret
What's the use to look behind you,
Nursing up the vain regret
What if life is clouded over
With its sOrrows dark and Wild
What il fortune does look sternlyf
Hath she never sometimes smiledI
Why, if you must taste the bitter,
Will You fling the sweet away,
Fighting ever with the crosses,
That you meet from day to day.
Why disquiet those around you
With complaints you should suppress,
Weary those whom duty bids you
Still Ia comfort and to bless
Look at yonder little insect
Sporting in the suns bright beams
Listen now and hear the music
OF yon laughing little streams.
Look ut nature ali around you
Aud above, where'er you stay!
Mute creations ever singing.
Happy l! il seems to say.
What's the use To be unhappy?
What's the Use TO fume and fret,
Pluck up courage, laugh at trihes,
And you may bs happy yet!
