THE FAMILY CLOCK.
BY W. WHITELOCK.

Mine ancient friend, beside the stair,
Who marks the fight of time with care,
And b. your ticking seem to gauge
My waste of Gods bright heritage,
And conscience like to sternly chide
As life approaches eventide,
Say, what is Time? for you should know,
Who thus presume to mark its flow:
When first was born? and came from whence I?
The fiat Of 0mnipotence?
When God exclaimed, let there be light
Did it begin its wOndrous flight?
When Chaos reigned supreme DER all
While d. rkness hung as funeral pail,
Did Tine exist? was it unknown
Ere vOld into this orb had grown?
In youth your footsteps seem to lag,
And years their course then slowly drag,
For in the diPance CLEANS a prize,
Which fame, pictures to its eyes.
But now, in age, with rapid pace
1 ne hands doth move across your face,
And youth, with all its fanced needs,
The brighter grows as it recedes,
y ct still ahead new youth appears
When you shall score our term of years
The boundless future thought sublime,
Say is Il gauged and marked as Time?
And is it earth's continued flow
An upward life from this below?
Why do l ask :? You only score
The drops which God doth steady pour
To form Times stream unto sea-
Which reached, we call Eternity;
And pure of heart will seem to sight,
As formed of phosphorescent light,
When DER its surface we shall glide,
With Gods own Son, our soul beside.
Then to the sight may be revealed
These things in mercy now concealed.
