TEE LAST FLOWER OF TIEE YEAR.
ny LUCY JARcoh.

The gentian was the years last child,
Born when the winds were hoarse ana wllu
With wailing over buried flowers,
The playmates Of their SUMMER hours.
The gentian hid thoughtful eye
Beneath deep fringes, blue ana shy;
Only by warmest noon-beams won'
10 meet the welcome of the sun.
The gentian, her long lashes through
Looked up into the sky so blue,
And felt at home the color there,
The good God gave herself to wear
The gentian searched the fields around;
No fiower-companion there she found
Onward, from all the woodland ways,
Floated the aster's silvery ways
The sentian shut her eyelids Tight
On falling leaf and frosty night;
And close her azure mantle drew,
While dreamy winds around her pew
The gentian said THE world is cold
Yet one clear glimpse of heaven hola.
The SUMS last thought is mine To- Keep'
Enough-now let me goto sleep."

AN OLD YEAR SONG.
nY OLIVER wENDELLmoLMEs.


As through the forest, dlsarray0d
by chill December, late atrayed,
A lonely minstrel Of the wood
Was singing 10 the solitude;
loved Thy music, thus said,
When Der thy perch the leayes were spread
Sweet was thy song, but sweeter now
Thy carol on the leafless bough.
Sing, little bird thy note shall cheer
Tho sadness OF the dying year
When ylolets pranked the turf with blue
And morning iilled their cups with dew,
Thy slender voice with ripping trim
The budding April bowers would MI,
Nor pass its Joyous tones away
When April rounded into May;
Thy life shall hail no second dawn
Bling, little bird the sprlng isgone.
Aud cmember-well.a-day
Thy full-blown summer roundelay;
Az when behind 'broiderod screen
Some holy maiden sings unseen;
With answering notes the woodland rung,
And every tree-top found tongue,
How deep the shade the groves how fairl
Sing little birds the woods are bare.
But now the summers chant IL done
And mute the choral antiph0n
The birds have left the shivering pines
~ Ilt lliOllH iiii 'ihN't
Or fan the air with scented plumes
Amid the love.slck orange blooms,
And thou art here alone-alone-
Sing, little bird the rest have down.
The snow has capped yon distant hill,
At morn the running brook was Sill,
From driven herds the clouds that rise
Are like the smoke Of sacrifice,
Ere long the frozen sod shall mock
The plowshare changed to stubborn rock,
The brawling streams shall soon be dumb
Sing, little bird the frosts have come.
Fast, fast the lengthening shadows creep,
The songless fowls are hal asleep,
The air grows chill, the setting sun
May leave thee ere thy song Is done,
The pulse that warns thy breast grows cold
THY secret dies with thee untold;
THE lingering sunset stlll is bright;
Sing, little bird twill soon be night.
