The Parsons Couftship.

The story, as have heard it told,
fashion into idle rhyme,
To show, that though the heart grows old
Yet love abides in golden prime.
An aged parson, on his mare.
Was riding where his heart inclined,
Yet wore n sober 10 * and air
A one who had troubled mind.
For when he passed the graveyard gate,
His ewes grew dim with sudden tears
In looking AT slab of slate,
Where lay his wife of other wears.
She. diving said i wrols-@d the dead
o make a wedding on a grave:
The words kept ringing n his head,
And great bewilderment they gave.
He longed 10 make a second choice,
For every sunday in the choir
He heard the widow Churchill's voice,
Until she grew hi. hearts desire.
The parsons passion unconfessed,
Like smold-red heat within him burned
Which never ence the widow guessed,
Or haply it had been returned.
With hazel branch the mare was switched,
And cantcrei down the winding road,
And underneath 4 tree was hrched
At captain ChurchilH. old abode.
The dame was busy sitting -four,
NOr heard the conner till he said
BE praise to that Almighty Power
Who giveth man his daily bread ~
The widow-cauCht 10y such guest,
IN Just her linsey-wooiSev gown,
Instead of ia her Sunday best
Dropped ba>hfully her eyelids down.
Then spake her suitor to her face
L have a solemn word 10 say,
Nhcreto is need of heavenly grace;
So. sister Churchill, let US pray"
Devoutlv did the couple knee;-
The parson at the rocking chair,
The widow at the spinning wheel
And this the burden of the prayer:
He mourned for uncommtted sin.
Implored grace on all mankind,
And asked that love might enter in
And sweetly move the widows mind.
Uprising from his praverful knees,
Il seek q wife, the parsOu said.
''And finding thee, if God shall please,
Nor thou deny, then let wed"
The widow started with surprise.
tFor women old are women stin,)
And answered lifting up her eyes,
Il ask TO do the heavenly will"
The heavenly will WAS plain indeed,
And pointed to the howery yoke,
For love is not the human need
Of young alone, but aged folk.
One dav, when asters were III bloom,
There came a throng from far and near,
To wish the JOY of bride and groom,
And eat and drink the wedding cheer.
That ght beside the bridal bed,
Up spoke the bride in tender tone,
u hold message from the dead,
And time has come TO make it known.
The wears are twelve, this very dav,
Since She whose title now is mine,
The night before she passed away
Bequeathed 10 me this written line:
To thee, 0 friend Of all my life,
vow before my strength be spent.
That should he wed another wife,
If thou art she, rest content"
lie gazed upon the well-kuOwn hand,
Thought backward of the b, gone wears,
Thought forward Of the heavenly land,
And answered not a word for tears.
\ halluwed honey ymoon they passed,
And both grew young in growing old:
Till swectly fading out At last,
They lett the tale that / have told.
