POETRY.
Second Thoughts.

Farewell, sweetheart Since Summers ended
Our hopes fall hfeless as the leaves,
And all the joys of us commended
Fit with swallows from the caves
When love was by our hearts defended
With all the fierce desire conceiyes,
We both forgot that all depended
Upon few well-garnered sheaves.
Yes, since IT'S bleak and bitter weather,
We've come at last unto good-by;
We two, by Summer flung together,
Kiss one more time, and dare not cry
Against the world, that cares not whether
We madly choose to part-or die.
lit would be this to bide together
When bread is dear and rents are higb0
In June's sweet hight we both delighted
To talk of ties that should endure
The radiant hours to this invited;
Each cunning birds nest hid a lure.
But now, when every rose is blighted,
We are not of our nest so sure;
For modern sweethearts pause, affrighted,
When they discover both are poor.

Beyond the Stars--What ?

'ris easy to trace the soul to the hoGr
That dcprivcs the form Of it, breath;
But who shall follow thc spirits hight,
Whcn it seeks the portal, Of death?
Who rrnd thc Vail that hides from our view
The future beyond The bright stars?
who follow the spirit, upward flight
When it breaks through oar earthly bars
Wmt--aA what Is that futuIc stateg
And where, Oh, where Is the goal:
Which Christians say is the resting place,
And home Of the dralhcs- soul?
|, II beyond ,hc dark bue sky
Beyond where tie stars now shine?
Where angels sing their song of praise
TO the spirit of God divine2
Can life he the end ofalI our hopesy
j. the Struggle with death all o'cry
Or is there life beyond the tomb,
Where the soul lives cvcmorc?
Docs the soul exist when life has flown,
Or sink, like the cor,e into night!
Let US rather believe the brilliant mind
Still continues It's upward flight
Let lis think that the soul can never die
That its mission win never cnd
That there Is u land beyond the sky,
Where friend will still meet friend;
THAT, freed from the turmoil and ills Ofliie---
From its troubles ills and sears,
The soul will worship the God OF Light,
In his mansion "beyond the stars!
