From whence no traveller, once past,

Thus in an ever varying round,
The human tide doth flow;
The old must drop again to ground,
The young pcrchance may go.i
few golden CLEANS of sunshine,

With chickering's for "mine and thine"
And troubles oft we borrow.

Oh! what q blessed life he led,
Whose walk was wi tn his God;
