Tinse 10 Me.


Time to me this truth hath taught,
lis truth that's worth revealing;
More offend from want of thought,
Than from any want of feeling.
If advice we would convey,
There's time we should convey 1t;
If we've hut a word to say,
There's time in which to say it
Many a beauteous flower decays,
Though we tend it e'er so much;
Something secret on it preys,
Which no human aid can touch.
So, in many a loving breast,
Lies some csnker- grief concealed,
Tlat, if touch'd is ms re oppressed,
Left unto itself--is healed.
OF, unknowingly, the tongue
Touches on a chord so aching,
That a word, or accent wrong,
Pains the heart almost to breaking.
Many tear of wounded pride,
Many fault of human blindness,
Had been soOthed, or turn'd aside,
By d quiet voice of kindness !
Time to me this truth hath taught,
'Tls truth that g worth revealing;
More offend from want of thought,
Than from any want of feeling.

POETRY.
A Roman Picture.

Close to the window | wheel my chair,
In the afternoon, when my work is done,
To get nv breath of the scented arr,
To Ike my share of the Roman sun,
The air tha, over y0n mossy wall,
Brings me the sweetness of on nge bloom
The sun whose going carries US all
Out of glory into gloom.
Calm in the light of the waning day,
And peaceful, the convent gard n lies;
There, on the hillside cold and gray,
The frowuing walls and the old lowers rise
To and fro in the winds soft breath
The bending ivy sways and swings;
To and fro on the slope beneath
The Roman pine its shadow finss.
To ard fro the wbie clouds drift
Over the old roof gray with moss,
Over the sculptured saints that ilft
Each to the sky his m trbie cross,
Owe, the stern old belfry tower,
Where, from its prison house of stone,
A pale-faced clock marks hour hy our
The changes that the years have shown
Free glad birds this prison share.
White doves in this Old tower dwell,
Not for them the Call to prayer,
Not for them the warning hell.
As they fit about the caves,
How their white W ngs catch the sun.
While below through orange leaves
Cleans the white cup of the nun.
Spotless kerchief, gown of gray.
Forehead wrapped 10 hand OF white
These must labor, watch. and pray,
These must keep the cross in sight;
Thes are they who walk apart,
Who, with purpose undefiled, -.
Seek to ill a worlan's heart
Without hom, or love or child.
1t is true that many hands
Find that rosary chainf
True that meath these snowy bands
Tbrobs, full oft, a restless brain7
True that simple robe of gray
Covers oft troubled breast?
True that pain and passions sway
Enters even to this rest
True, that at their holiest shrine,
In their hours of greatest good,
Comes to them voice divine,
o. a-sYeeier wonianhoOd?
II may be-how can I tell
Who, outside the garden wall,
Only hear the convent bell,
Only see the shadows fall !?
