Be that as it may, the work must be DONE
TITS the masters orders ere set OF sun.
First, cut the boards, and here is good wine
To strengthen that foolish heart OF thine;
Then plane the boards as smooth as can be;
And save the shavings that flow so free;
Then in the coffin, all vanished and bright,
You must lay the shavings so thin and light;
For these, so oft, are ever the bed
Whereupon they are used to lay the dead
Then screw down the lid, and slowly 90

But tremble with fear whatever do;
plane the boards so smooth and trim,
But my arm is weak and my eyes are dim;
I ioin the boards so true and strong,
But my heart is heavy the whole day long;
'Tis dreadful task; am sore afraid,
For between the boards the dead will be laid.

THE FLOWN BIRD.
ny RICHARD HENRY sToDDAED.
A JAPANESE SONG,

The maple leaves are whirled away,
The depths Of the great pines are stirred;
Night settles on the sullen day,
As in its nest the mountain bird.
NV wandering feet go up and down,
And back and forth, from town to town,
Through the lone woods, and by the sea,
To find the bird that fed from me;
followed, and follow yet
have forgotten to forget.
Nv heart goes back, but 90 on,
Through summer heat and winter snow;
Poor heart! we are no longer one,
We are divided by our woe!
Go to the nest built, and call
She may be hiding, after all
The empty nest, if that remains,
And leaves me in the long, long rams;
My sleeves with tears are always wet
have forgotten to forget!
Men who know my story, but not me
For such fidelity, they say,
Exists not-such man as he
Exists not in the world to-day!
II this light bird has flown the nest
She is no worse than all the rest;
Constant they are not-oDly good
70 bill and coo, and hatch the brooI;
He has but one thing to regret
He has forgotten to forget.
All day I see the ravens fly,
hear the sea-birds scream all night;
The moon goes up ana down the sky,
And the sun comes in ghostly light;
Leaves whir, white flakes about me blow
Are they spring blossoms, or the snow:
Only my hair, Good bye, my heart,
The time has come for us to part;
Be still! you will be happy yet
Lor doath rampmhprs tn forget!

losses paper to him as the tram PUSHES by,

allow the hali-suffocated miners To ascend
and they were all safe; not one was lost
And the day after they stood, with uncovered
heads, beside the coffin containing all thai
was mortal of Wild Dan. whilst the minister
from the next town read the burial service
and when 1t was finished, and the moulds
covered the grave, they turned silently away
every heart praying for his soul And If true
prayers avail, surely the repentant sinner i:

And Kate? OF course Kate married viii

Dan, nor ever ceased to remind Pansey &c
whom she owed her escape from the burning
