THE CANARY AT CHURCH.

They were singing good old "London,
As the evening, cool and sweet,
Drifled with purple shadows
Adown the city street.
Round every church window
The lustv ivy chung
The red, faint sunshine flickered
Its matchless leaves among
The dim nave, with its arches
And clustered pillars rare,
Had echoed to the cadence
OF the pale rector's prayer.
And now through lender silence,
The thrilling llute-notes rang;
And sweet MS angels voices
The rare old tune they sang.
When sudden, 10 appearing
On carving, quaint and old,
Like fair estray from heaven,
FluItered spcck Of gold.
On to the lecturn flying,
Up TO The Bishops chair,
With clear notes, soaring, chanting
Ills wondrous vespers there.
Full rolled the singing voices,
Yet sweeier, richer, higher,
God silver-rhroaled chorister
Ouisang the trained choir.
