Jennie sighed, Robin squeezed her
Pretty little trembling hand.
Then with eutstretched arms he seized her
Half-reluctant form, and-and-
Loose me- but he clasped her tighter
Jenny say. will thou be mine?'
Then her bright face grew much brighter
And she whispered, Il am thine
Then they clasped each other fondly;
Close together as two bricks,
And they kissed each other soundly,
And left them in that fix.

THE BRIDAL VEIL
BY ALICE CARY.


We're married, they say, and ycu think you have
won me-
Well, take this white veil from my head, and look
on me:
Here's matter to yex you, and matter to grieve
yon,
Here's doubt to distrust you, and faith TO believe
you--
/ am all as you see, common earth, common dew !;
Be wary, and mould me to roses, not ruef
All, shake out the flmy thing, fold after fold,
And see if you have me to keep and to hold
Look close on my heart--see the worst Of its sim
ming
It is not yours to-day for the yesterdays winning
The past is not mine--I am too proud to borrow
You must grow to new heights if love you to-
morrow.
We're married! I'm plighted to hold up your
praises,
As the turf at your feet does its handful Of daisies
That way lies my honorary pathway of pride,
But, mark you, if greener grass grow either side,
shall know it, and keeping in body with you,
Shall walk in my spirit with feet on the dew
We're married. Oh, pray that our lore do no
fail
! have wings fattened down aud bid under M.
veil;
They are subtle as ight-you can never und'
| them,
And swift in their Aight--you can never pursu
| them,
And spite Of all claspings and spite Of all bands,
can slip like a shadow, a dream from your hand.
Nay, call me not cruel, and fear not to take me,
/ am yours for my lifetime to be what you woul
make me-
To wear my white veil for sign, or cover,
As you shall be proven my lord, or lover,
A cover for peace that is dead, or token
OF bliss that can never be written or spoken.

THE MlaIc POWER or SONG
N Llzzls LEWIS.

. 5 4 . + d q -
When the soul, BY sorrow bowed,
Ehrinks il silence from the crowd,
Or, oppressed BY daily cares,
Lifes dull burden hardly bears
What can soothc the aching breast
Give the wearicd spirit rest,
Ease the weight Of pain or wrong,
Like tho magic power Of song
Flooding through the city street,
Grating sounds the ear must greet
Discords harsh and babble rude,
Mid the varied multitude;
But when "day begins TO die"
Homeward may the weary bic,
And how sweet At twilight dim,
Sounds the low sung evening hymn.
Music, and her sister art,
Offspring oftbe poets heart
Kindle Loves ecstatic fame,
Give the brave 4 nobler fame,
Breathe enchantment round the tomb,
Robbing death ofhalf is gloom
/ And when man to heaven aspifes,
Add fresh wings to pure desires.
Then around each household FIRE,
Be glad domestic choir,
Tuneful hearts their tongues shall teach
Harmony Of sounds to reach;
And though angel choirs above,
Louder swell their songs ofloys,
Not less sweet in Mercys car,
Are the praises wsrbled here.
