Why dost Thou Wait?

Poor, trembling lambt All, who outside the folt
Has bid thee stand, all weary thou art?
Dangers around thee, and the bitter cold
Creeping to thine nmost heart;
Who bids thee wait till some mysterious feeling
Thou knowest not what-perchance may neve
know
Shall find thee where in darkness thou art kneel
ing,
And fill thee with rich and wondrous glow
Of love and faith; and change to warmth and
light
The chill and darkness of thy spirits night?
For miracles like this, who bids thee wait?
Behold, ''The Spirit and the Bride say, comeF'
The tender Shepherd opens wide the gate
And in his love would gently slead thee home
Why shouldst thou wait? Long centuries ago,
Thou timid lamb, the Shepherd paid for thee.
Thou art His own. Wouldst thou His beauty
know,
Nor trust the love which yet thou canst not
see?
Thou hast not learned this lesson to receive
More blessed are they who see not, yet believe.
Still thou dost wait for feeling? Dost thou say,
'Fan would love and trust, but hope is dead
have no faith and without faith, who may
Rest in the blessing which is only shed
Upon the faithful? must stand and wait'
Not so. The Shepherd does not ask of thee
Faith in thy faith, but only faith in Him.
And this He meant in saying "Come to Me-"
In light or darkness seek to do His WILL
And leave the work of faith to Jesus STILL

RESPECTFULLY INSCRIBED TO j. A. f.
Her deep blue eyes, her gol9eh hair,
Her smiles So rare her face so fair,
/ never, never more shall see,
Though she was all the world ome;
For hushed and still she's lying low
Under the snow the cold, white snow.
A voice of trues5 melody;
A heart of warmest sympathy;
A gentle hand to clasp my own :
How sad to think forever gone:
Yes, cold and white, she's lying low
Meath the dark. damp turf, and the silent
snow.
Friends, gather around and speak to me,
In tones of warmest sympathy
And try some comfort to impart,
To cheer my weary, wounded heart
But Eve no other friend know,
Like her who lies eeHeatl; the Show
And some have chided me and said,
'Tis all in vain to mourn the dead =
But 1 cannot stay the falling tear,
Nor cease to mourn for one so dear.
Oh! ye who chide, ye little know,
How m9Gch Il9Gsc I've '9ss neneafh the + snow: snow

Among the holy and the blest;

Can REACH her on that happy shore.
But my heart is filed with bitterest woe,

De Quincy, speaking of the grandeur, and
submity of the human spirit, says most beau
tifully, that all of our thoughts have not words
corresponding to them; many of them In our
yet imperfectly developed nature can never ex
press themselves in acts, that must lie, iappre-
ciabe by God only, like the silent melodies !, IN
a great musicians heart, never to roll forth
from harm or organ.
