EVERLASTING FLOWERS.
I send thee hut u simple gift,

send thee hut simple gift,
little bunch Of dry, crisp flowers,
Still rainbow-colorcd, though ills long
incesunshine Eed them, or the showers
Mere phanto,ns of those thoughts oflove
Whose flying seeds from Eden blew;
Gods hand in pity sent them forth,
IfTalmud legends are but true.
Dear, promise me that when am dead,
You'll press within my clay-cold hand
The same bright everlasting flowers;
I'll bear them through the Silent Land.
shall not need remcmbranccs
Ofthec, my own; but still III keep
These always with me through the dim,
Sad shadow of Deaths long, long sleep.
Dark waters, in thy blacklist gulf
Dark valley, in thy ghastiest cleft.
I'll guard These flowers, the types Of love.
Though nothing but these flowers be
LETT.
Come flame and torture for my sins,
Or Mercy ope the golden portal,
Still, still III grasp those changeless ilow-
erS,
To prove my boundless love immortal.

WHOM FIRST WE LOVE.
BY JULIA WARD HOWE.

|
Whom first we love, you know, we seldom
wed;
Time rules us all. Aud Life, indeed, Il
The thing we planned it ere our hope was
dead;
Aud then we women cannot choose our
lot.
Much must be borne which 1t is hard to
bear,
Much hgiven way which 1t were sweet to
keep.
God help us all! who need, indeed, His
care,
And yeti know the Shepherd loves his
sheep.
My little boy begins to babble now
Upon my knee his earliest infant prayer;
Hehas his fathers eager eye, know,
And they say, too, his mothers sunny
hair. Z.
But when he sleeps and smiles upon my
knee,
And can feel his light breath come and
go,
think Of onc-Heaven help and pity me
Who loved me, and whom loved, long
ago.
Who might have been-ah, what dare
not think,
We all have changed, God judges us best
God help us do our duty, and not shrink,
And trust in Heaven for the rest.
But blame lis women not, II some appear
too cold
At times, and some too gay and light;
Some griefs gnaw deep; some woes 4 are, Ers,II
hard to bear
Who knows the pastp And who can
Judge us right?
All, we were judged by what we might
have been,
And not by what we arc-too apt to fall
My little child-he sleeps and smiles be-
tween these
Thoughts and me. In Heaven we shall
know all.

Lonely! lonely!
Longing for the football only
Ger the threshold of my door;
While the night begins to strengthen,
And the Sombrc shadows lcngthcn,
Wicrdly creeping through the halls
Where the well known footstcp falls.
Lonely! lonely.
Longing for one dear voice only
That was music once to me;
Now the tear drops fall and glistcn
As sit alone and listen
Vanly hstcn for strain

Lonely! lonely!
Longing for one dear face only
That shall smile on me no more;
on my hand methinks there fingers
Loving touch of gentle fingers,
But the fancy soon is flown,
And feel am alone.
Lonely! lonely!
Circled by her darkness only,
While the llickcring freight fades
And the night winds mournful singing
Seems to my sad heart replying
With itsevcr wailing tone,
All alone, all alone!
