throne of Spain" Nay, more; the de

to be decorated with the grand Gordon of

how much is life like early Spring
How full of sun and showers
To-day how bright Is everything,
Tomorrow darkness lowers.
Short time ago our path was crossef,
BY early flowers of Spring,
Now see there's been killing frost,
And they lie withering
just now we heard a turtle sing,
And tell his tale OF love,
And now, with head beneath his wing.
He hides him in the grove.
And now the stream with murmurings clear,
Almost invites to love,
Anon its shtothered voice We hear,
As coming fsom the grove.
IT'S thus our days on earth Lass by.
: Each hope is clothed with fears,
Each fire that kindies in our eye,
Is drowned by cruel tears.
'ii' thus there meet us on our way,
Alternate joy aud sorrow,
And many a hope that blooms to-day,
Is b Ugh ed by tomorrow
But oh there is a land above,
Where none will e'er epinc,
Where Joy and eladness re'er remove,
AMI suns do ever shine.
Oh glorious hope to mortals given,
To cheer them through life's darksome way
10 guide them to the port of heaven,
Where rests the soul in endless day.
