MISCELLANEOUS READING.
My Wife.

u
WRITTEN BY An INVALID.
I heard her, oh, how cautiously,
Open my bedroom door
| heard her step as noiselessly
10 my: couch across thesfoor
l felt her hand my temples press,
her lips just touching mine
And in my anguish and distress,
Twere sintulto repine.
Our pilgrimage is nearly through
We've passed life's 8 mountain brow;
I thought / loved her years ago.
know love her now.
Her face was lowering over mine,
Her warm tears on my cheek
Her whispered prayer of thought divine
Rose .feryently, but meek.
Her bosom rested on my arm,
felt its trenulous three
knew the cause of its alarm,
And felt its source Of woe.
And then the blood my system through
Csme pressing on my brow
thought loved her years ago.
know I love her now.
Iswatched that tried and patient one.
By night as well as day,
In sadness and almost alone,
Till weeks had passed away.
Bsreft of sleep---deprived of rest.-.
Oppressed. borne down with care,
Till, oh. her labors have been blest,
For God has heard her prayer.
Her cheek resumes lis wonted glow,
And placid is her brow
I thought L loved her years ago---
] know I love her now.
