There are moments Of sadness IN life,
When silently over US fsH
Forobodings of sorrow and strife,
Dim shadows far reaching and tall
are they warnings Of trouble before,
Thus vaguely and feintly defined?
Or hauntings of that which is Ger,
Yet leaveth its shadow behind?
WHY hath net the feeling manner
In tear-drops II seeketh relief
But, yet, it il never the same,
As Baduesa that cometh with grief.
1t is not batdarkness abiding,
When the 3oul in fierce battle must cope,
With a sorrQty whose banner is hiding,
The starlight that geameth with hope;
When the htkrt It's own bitterness knows,
But keepeth It's secret from all,
Though the tbrrent q feeling o'erfows
And hot etrs Of anguish viii fall
Does it come bike bugle-note, citing
The soldiei to arms for fight
Like the gret clasp Of twilight, uniting
joys suns line with sorrows dark night
Or is 1t q sold pm toned chant,

Not the fro 1T that discolors the leaf?
know not but faia would believe
The feeling betokens no ILL.,
But comes tide full heart to relieve,
And bid tbe flushed spirit be still.
And where Fer the spirit it falleth
Oh let not the warning be vain.
But deem it IN angel who calleth
The soul ID its duties again.
