The Old Elm Tree.

o the old elm tree is standing now,
Where il stood 81 long ago,
When , IN its shade we children played,
Till the sun In the west grew low,
And its branches reach as far as and high,
And the sky above is as clear,
But under 1t now no children play.
In the golden day $ Of the year.
The sunbeams creep thro' the rustling leaves
That fall on the moss-grown seat,
And tall grass waves where in other years
Ii WAS troddcn by chillren's feet.
Aud the bees hum lazily In the shM".
Through til long bright summc - day.
And the soft wind murmurs with lonely sound
Where the children used to play.
They are all gone from their childl,oo,i's home
And have wandered far away;
Ofall that band of the dear old time,
There Is not one left to-day.
They are parted now by many milo,
And the waves and mountains high
And one has gone to the home beyond,
Through the golden gates of the sky.
And many wear has come and gone,
nd many q summers sun
Has passed sslOwn the golden west,
When the long bright day was done
And many an autumn wind has blown,
And many a winter east,
Der hill and vale. its shrou,l of now,
Since the children met there last
And the weary years will still move on
With their sunshine and their pain:
Bat there In the shade of the old elm tree,
They will never all meet again.
But there Is n haven of quiet rest.
And its portals are open wide;
And one by one as the angels call,
They will meet on the other side.
