POETRY.


There comes time when we grow old,
And like sunset down the sea,
Slope gradual, and the night wind cold
Comes whispering sad and chilingiy;
And locks are gray
-' As winters day,
And eyes of saddest blue behold
The leaves all weary drift away,
And lips of faded coral say
sThere comes time when we grow DID,
There comes time when joyous hearts,
Which leaped as leaps the laughing main,
Are dead to all save memory,
AS prisoner in his dungeon chain;
And dawn of day
Hath passed away,
The moon hath into darkness rolled,
And by the embers wan and gray,
1 hear voice in whisper say
''There comes time when we grow DID,"
There comes time when manhood's prime
Is shrouded in the midst of years;
And beauty, fading like dream,
Hath passed away in silent tears
And then, how dark
But oh, the spark
That kindled youth to hues oil gold,
Sti1 burus With clear and steady ray
And fond affections, lingering, say
"There comes a time when we grow old"
There comes a time when laughing spring
And golden summer cease to be;
And we put ON the autumn robe;
To tread the last declivity;
But now the slope
With rosy Hope,
Beyond the sunset we behold,
Another dawn with with fairer light;
While watchers whisper through the night,
'There is time when we grow old.'
