Give as the waves when their channel is riven;
Give rs the free air and sunshine are given;
Lavislly, utterly, carelessly give.
Notthe waste drops Of thy cup over1owing,
Not the faint spark of thy hearth ever glowing,
Not pale bud from the June roses blowing;
Give as lie gave thee to live. "ii
Pour out thy love like the rush Of river
Washing its waters, forever and ever, & u
Thr0' the burntsands that reward not the gyer.
Silent Or songful, though nearest the sea,
Scatter the life as the Summer showers pouring!
What fno bird thro' the pearl rain is soaring?
What II no blossom looks upward atloring?
Look to the life that was lavishcd for thee!
Give, tho thy heart may be wasted and weary,
Laid on au altar oil ashes and dreary;
Though from its pulses q faint lniserere 1'Y1
Beats to thy soul the sad prcsagc of fate, li
Bind II with cords Of uushrinking devotion;
Smile at the song of its restless cmo,ion;
TITS the stern hymn Of cternity's ocean; ~
Hear! and In silence thy future await.
So the wild wind strews its perfnmed caresscs,
Evil and thankless the desert 1t blcsses
Bitter the wave that its soft pinion presses,
Never 1t ccaseth to whisper md sing.
What Il the hard heart give thorns for thy roses?
What fon rocks thy tired bosom rcposcs?
Sweetest is music with minor-keyed closes,
Fairest the vines that on ruin will cling
Almost the day Of thy giving is over;
Ere from the grass dies The bec-haunted clover,
Thou wilt have vanished from friend aud from

What shall thy longing avail in the grave?
Give as the heart gives whose letters are break

Life, love, and hope, all thy dreams and thy

Soon. heavens river, thy soul fever shaking,
Thou shalt know God and the gift that he gave.

A pair of rosy lips is chiefly significant

reason. HoRArIo tells us that

fra from making any attack upon the
already badly CALLED, terribly hararssed
