THE DAILY NEWS.
Sum and Shadow.

As i look from the isle Ger its billows Of green,
To the pillows OF foam.cres ed blue,
Yon ba h. that f.r in the distance ls seen,
Haf dreaming eyes wall pursue
Now dark The shad she scatters the spray
Ae the chaif in the stroke ofthe fliil
Now whi'eas h" gull she flies ON her way,
The gicamins bri ,ht on her sail.
Yet her pilot is thinking Of dangers to shun,-
OF breakers that whiten and roar
How little he ca,es If in shadow or sun
They see vim who gaze from the shore
he looks to til oeacon that looms irom the reef,
To the rock that under his lee.
AS he Drifts on the blast. like wind-waf leaf,
Ger the cuffs of the desolate sea.
Thus dri ting altar to the dim. vau' ed caves
w Gre life and its ventures laid,
The dr.. amors who gaze while we battle the waves
May SEQ us sunshine shade
Yet tru- to our course, though our shadow grow
dark
We'u trim our broad sail as BEFORE
And stand by the rudder that governs the bark
