POETRY.
A Song for Peace.
by JOAQUIN MILLER.


As tale that is.told, as vision,
Forgive and forget; for say
That the true shall enjoy the derision
OF the false till the full Of the day;
Ay, forgive as you would be forgiven;
Ay, forget, lest the Ill you nave uonn
Be remembered against you III IieA'e"
And all the days under the SUM-
r,or Who sbo,, have bread without labor:
And Who shall have resi- without price!
And who shall hold war with his neighbor
With promise of peace with the Cnilst.
The wears may lay hand on fair Heaven;
May place and displace the red stars;
NAV stain them, as blood stains are driven
At sunset in beautiful bars;
May shroud them in black till they fret us
As clouds with their showers of tears:
May grind us to dust and forget u.s.
May the years, o, the pitiless years
The precepts of Christ are beyond them:
The truths by the Nazarene taught,
With the tramp of the ages upon them,
They endure as though ages were naught;
The deserts may drink up the fountains.
The forests give place to the plain,
Inc man may give place to the mountains,
The mountains return to the main;
Mutations of worlds and mutations
VI suns may take place; but the reign
OF Time and the tolls and vexations
bequeath them, no. never stain.
Go forth to the fields as one sowing,
Sing songs and be glad as you go, ,.
There are seeds that take root without sho"ins'
And bear some fruit whether or no.
And the sun shall shine sooner or later,
Though the midnight breaks g rounu vi 'no HULL
Then appeal you to Christ, the creator,
And 81 ,Tay bearded Time, His first-born.
