Thackeray tells us of a woman
begging aims from him, who,
when she saw him put his hand
in his pocket, cried out, MAY
the blessing of God follow you
all the days of your life !" But
when he only pulled out his
snuffbox Immediately added.
And never overtake ye."

l wait for what! For better things
For hours Of which the poet siugsl
10 drink from purer, sweeter springs (?
hardly know.
Perchance you wonder If there be.
IN distant years that we may see,
Some greater good for you and me I
It must be 80.
I hold my faith in coming years.
Though dark the present time appears
The light to be my pathway cheers.
Aud onward leads
The past is but land Of Dreams
The present little that it seems.
The future hides the golden beamA
The fruitful deeds.
That which I visit will come sometime.
The greatest good will reach its prime
And Of ito fullness. ripe sublime.
l shaIl partaks !;
The nectar springs Of which I dream
Will in the sunlight brightly CLEAN,
Ny longing thirst at the cool stream.
then shall slack.
Till then l wait not hoping less
Because the greater happiness
Succeeding days do not possess
My faith Is strong;
l wait with pstien! firm belief
That JOY will give its crown to grief
And harvest time will bring the sheaf
Awaited long,
God pity him whose faith is dead
In good to come who may have said.
There is no brighter day ahead,
No warmer sun :"
For him the years will slowly wane.
To him will como no end Of pain.
With him will be each lasting bane
Bot just begun.
The mocking light We ever chase.
That with our steps forever keep pace. |
Familiar grows as does the face
Of dearest friends;
And ifin all their mocking flight,
Our hope of capture still is bright.
The b'illiance Of the feeting light
Will never end
The greatest good we never hold !;
The buds Of promise ne'er unfold
Within our grasp the flowers Of gold,
But blossom late.
The sweetest hopes are all before; |.
Tho raress joys are still in store; .
And patiently for evermore |,
We for them wait.
