The Children.

When the lessons and tasks are all ended.
-, And the school for the day is dismissed
The little ones gather around me
70 bid me good night" and be kissed.
Oh! the little white arms chat encircle
My neck in their tender embrace:
Oh! the smiles that are haloes of heaven.
Shedding sunshine of love in my face.
And when they are gone, sit dreaming
~ my childhood too lovely to last
Of Joy that my heart will remember
While 1t wakes to tho pulse-of the past:
4 er the world and its wickedness made ME
A partner of sorrow and sin,
Wnen the glory OF God was about me,
And the glory Of gladncss within.
ssl not !. LIE fsol sol !, the dear ones.
AL radiant, rs others have done:
But that life may have just enough shadow
10 temper the glare Of the sun;
would pray God to guard them from evil;
But my prayer would bound back on mv-
self; =.
Ah! seraph may pray for sinner.
But sinner must pray for himself.
l shall leave the old house in the autumn.
To traverse It's threshold no more;
Ah! how I shall sigh for the dear ones
That meet me each morn at the door:
1 shall miss the good nights" and the
kisses,
And the gush Of their innocent glec:
The group on the green, and the flowers
That are brought every morning to me.
