THE BRIDAL MORN.
BY ADA VROOsIAS.


LO in the East the radiant morn
Steals swift to meet her lord, the sun,
And down among the golden corn
The larks wake one by one.
Sweet twitterings break the misty calm,
And odorous buds unfurl in dew:
And fairer far than desert palm
To Arabs eager view.
Upspring the lilies. tall and pale.
To blush at sight of lovers eyes;
And amorous trills from yonder vale
Shall laud them to the skies
Sweet day! watch thy dawning haze
With raptures sweet prophetic zest;
Oh! golden sun, thy dying rays
Will see me dOubly blest.
My lily waits. with blushing cheek,
For her dear lovers ardent eyes;
And fairer far than lily meek,
She stands in bridal guise
She comes, with all her hopes and fears,
Clad in thescalm Of maiden life.
And brings her wealth of smiles and tears
To dover the faithful wife.
Sweet dawn and day. Sweet noon and night
Sweet stars that deck the bridal sky!
Ye come to witness the delight
That waits on constancy.
For Us no more shall loves alarms
Raise tumults in each happy breast.
But havened in each others arms.
We find our perfect rest.

In the April number of Harper's Mag
azine there is an excellent paper on the
"Torture of the Innocents," which every
parent should read, and from which we
take the following: i. ... .,. ...a.
There exists in some minds morbid inter-
est in death, an unnatural mOrtuary taste, and
an uncOnquerable attraction to the face of o
corpse. Certain persons never miss funeral,
and are critical upon shrouds, and the fine art
of mourning costume generally, and whose
horrible curiosity is masked under q specious
sort of religious interest sometimes, as farra-
90 of gossip about the clergyman and his fami-
ly is occasionally digniied as religious con.
versation with So-and-So" don't mean the
kind friend who. out of the love of Christ and
her neighbOr, stiles her own repugnance to the
task. and assists you in your hour OF need to
bury your dead out of your sight; but those
ghOul-like people who. not content with gratl-
fying their own love of the horrible, insist up.
on all the little children within their control
being taken to '.loOk at the corpse" AS If
that white mystery, so starkly lying there with
stiffening limbs and shining smooth hair, and
clad in white vestments OF the grave so straight
ly smooth around it, was eight calculated to
give child any other idea Of death than tina.
of unutterable Chill of silence and of loneliness
That pale form, dimly suggesting the dear
friend so strangely missing from the familiar
chair or couch, yet so unlike its old SELF so un-
like people, is not thing to bring into fami-
liar contact with sensitive, highly organized
natures. Especially is it SO to the warm
pulses and keenly vItalized sense of children.
And so much suffering is sometimes caused by
such shocks to the nervous systems OF young
children that it seems unnecessary and cruel to
cause the attendance of those of such tender
age on funeral occasions a.tas
Let all that be spared to the little ones. Tell
them that mamma, papa, or sister or brother
is gone away to another world, and make It
pleasant to them to sometimes talk of them Ia
that fair and distant country, Do not speak OF
the parting as for long time, and let the asso-
citation of death with all fair snowy blossoms,
all pure babe-like statues. all that suggests
calm white repose, and peaceful trust in Gods
love, take forever the place Of the coffin, the
skeleton and the hourglAss. We shall find 1t
easier to live, and surely not more difficult to
die, If to lie down softly, and pass away sweetly
and lovingly; If the awful darkness and cor
ruption is fairly yelled and forgotten. Let our
mother Earth and our sister Worm be cast in
to the shade which hides those old monkish
notions. born of celibacy, of unbaptzed babes
lying In the outer darkness until the Judgment
day that old rubbish Of halfheathen time, 3
when women were accounted vilest Of all
things. and marriage, though permitted, vet
regarded as only admitting Of lower grade Of
piety than the conventual cowl; when the
cloister and rope were the sufficient type of the
worlds piety. '''s4
