THE FLOOD OF YEARS.

| A Mighty Hand, from an exhaustless urn,
Pours forth the never-ending Flood Of Years
Among the nations. How the rushing
| Bear all before them On their foremost edge,
And there alone, is Life the Present there
Tosses and foams and fills the air with roar
| OF mingled noises There they who toll,
And they who strive, and they who feast and they
| who hurry to and fro. The sturdy hind
Woodm and deliver with the spade-are there.
| And busy artisan beside his bench,
| And pallid student with his written roll.
| moment on the mounting billow seen
The Hood sweeps over them and they are gone.
There gToups of revelers whose brows twincd
With roses ride the topmost swell awhile
And they raise their flowing cups to touch
The blinking brim to brim, are whirled beneath
The waves and disappear hear the jar
OF beaten drums. and thunders that breLk forth
From cannon, who're the advancing billow sends
Up to the sight long files of armed men,
That hurry to the charge through flame and smoke.
The torrent bears them under. whelmed and hid
Slayer and slain in heaps of bloody foam.
Down 90 the steed and rider; the plumed chief
Sinks with his followers; the head that wears
The imperial diadem Coca down beside
The felons with cropped ear and branded cheek.
A funeral trAin-the torrent sweeps away
Bearers and bier and mourners- By the bed
Of who dice men gather Borrowing,
And women weep aloud the food rolls on
