The Red, white, and Blue.

Red was the llghtning's flashing,
And down through the driving rain
We saw the red eyes dashlng
or the merclless midnight train.
Boon many crowded together
Undrr the lamps red glow,
But saw one figure only
Ahl why did I tTemble sof
The eyes that gaEed In the darkneaS,
Alter the midnight train,
Are re with watching and weeping,
For Il brings none back again.
Clouds hang In the west like banners
Red banners OF war unfuFled,
And the prairie sod is crimson
With tie best blood Of the world.
white faces are pressed to the window,
Watching the sun go down,
Looking out to the coming darkness
That elvers the noisy town:
White are the hands, too, and quiet,
Over the pulseless breast,
No more will the vision Of parting
Disturb the white sleeper's rest.
Over sleeper, and grave. and tombstone,
Like n plying mantle spread,
The snow comes down In the nighttime,
With a shy and noiseless tread.
RIue smoke rolls away on the north wind,
Blue skies grow dusk In the din,
Blue waters grew dark with the shadow
That gathers the world Wilhini
Rigid and blue are the hngers
That clutch at the fading sky,
Blue lips In their agony murmuF,
30 dod let this cup pass by:"
Blue eyrs grow weary with watching,
Strong hands with waiting 10 do,
While brave hearts echo the WAtghWord,
"Hurrah for the Red, White, and BlueW

Farewell, Life.

49,
Farewell. Life my senses swim,
And the world Is growing dim;
Tarnnglng shadows cloud the light,
Like the advent Of the night
Collier, colder, colder still,
UpWir steals n vapor chill;
Strong the earthly odoF grows
smell the mould above the rose
Welcome. Life the Spirit striVesi
Strength returns an hope revives;
Cloudy Tears and hopes forlOrn
Ply like shadows at the morn.
Ger the earth there comes = bloom;
Sunny light for sullen gloom,
Warm perfume for Vapbr cold
smell the rOse above the mould
