AN OLD MANS nrvEnr.

l am sitting alone by my freside tonight
As often have done before,
And list TO the voices, so clear and so bright
Ofthe children outside the door.
christmas has come !" they tell me in glee;
But their glad words only bring pain,
christmas has come" All me All me-
The song has sad refrain.
For thoughts come crowding 40 thick and fast
The sombre entwining the gay,
Like childhood's friends from the far. Of past
The friends that are gone for aye,
The little ones " atch me and whisper low
"Poor Grandpa is sad tonight
smile, for how shsuld the dsrlings know
My friends who are out Of sighty
They show me boy brimming over with fun
Instead Of Grandfather sagei-
In my childish pleasure | try to run;
Have my limbs grown stiff with agei
look in the mirror, oh who would know
The aged form sec,
The wrinkled face, and the beard Of snow,
Can that strange old man be me
| laugh at the picture; the voice hear
Has a shrill and hollow sound.
Alas that, too, has grown cracked and queer
I glance at my friends around;
They, too, have gone, and /, all alone,
Mid the little children stand,
A stranger sad in my once loved home.
All friends from the far OF land.
We beckon me on and fain would 20,
For the hour is growing late,
And | long for the time when full we'll know
The crooked shall all be made straight
1he face which earth has marked with care
In lines Of sin and pain,
Like an infants brow shall be calm aud fair,
And the dim eyes brigh, again.
The frost Of age shall melt away,
The voice long hushed shall sing,
As Il sweetly sung in childbood's days,
The praises Of CnRIsr It's King.
The wcried soul grown old in sin,
With garments long de6ed
A ransomej soul shall enter in
The kingdom as child.
