POETRY.
Time Long Past.
By SHELLEY.

Like the ghost of dear friend dead
Is time long past.
A tone which is now forever fled,
A hope which is now forever past,
A love SO sweet it could not last,
Was time long ago.
There were sweet dreams in the night
OF time long past,
And, was 1t sadness or delight,
Each day shadow onward cast .
Which made us wish it yet might last
That time long past.
There is regret, almost remorse,
For tine long past.
IT'S ike child's beloved corse
A father atches, till al last
Beauty is like remembrance cast
From time long past

ST. ERCoNwALD OF LONDON.

St. Ercon wald, of royal but heatben
parentage, was born at time when the
torrent of Divine grace, let loose by the
preaching of st. Augustine, was spreading
like food over EDgIand. He and his
sister were caught in its current, and, Civ
ing themselves up to its force, were led to
forsake the pleasures of the coart for the
more satisfying joys of the cloistsr. From
the monastery of Chertsey, which he bad
founded, and where he made great progress
iu the knowledge aud love of God, he was
called forth to be Bishop of London. AT
ter long years of arduous service, approved
by many a miracle, it was revealed to him
that bis time of warfare was drawing to it's
close ; go, once more Withdrawing himself
from the cares of the world as he had for
merly done from it's pleasures, be sought
the quiet convent of his sister at Barking,
and there committed his soul into his mas
ter's hands. Two miracles occurring
shortly after his death testified how dear
to God were the remains of this great
Saint; for as be died heavenly perfame
spread itself throughout the house, while q
little later, as they carried him to his
tomb in St. Pauls, the river Lea, swollen
with recent rains, divided like the Jordon
OF old, and made dry path for them that
carried him to pass over. he died aoou
600 The citizens of London had special
devotion to ST. Erconwald, aud the illu-
mination Of his shrine was among the great
sights of the metropolis.
In the year 1857, a terrible fire devastat-
ed the cathedral church of st. Paul's, aud
all London was grieved at the thought OF
losing the precious relics of ST. Erconwald.
But G cd was careful for the honor of His
servant for when the church was wholly
in flames, and the molten lead ran in
streams to the ground, the dry wooden
tomb of st. Ercon " aid alone remained un
hurt, with it's velvet pail unsinged.
The morning star and Catholic messenger., 1878-11-10

Witham. He was much venerated by
Henry H., who attributed his escape from
shipwreck to the merits of st. Hugh. His
love of the Holy Scriptures was remark
able; indeed OF him it could be said, in his
own words, they were his delight in peace,
arms in war, food in time of famine, aud
medicine in intirmity." Being promoted
to the see of Lincoln, hie coursge soor
manifested itself in resisting all encroach.
ment on his spiritual authority. Indeed
on one occasion, having withstood the
injustice of King Richard, and excommu
nic3ted those sent to arrest him, he forced
himself into the presence of the King, and
by his trmness and withal sweetness of
manner brought hin to repentance, the
king remnrkiDg that, "if all bishops were
like Hugh, no power could prevail against
them" The tender charity of this "maiet
of the king" as he was called, WAS as con
spicuous az his fortitn6e, finding vent in
innumerable acts of mercy which won him
the hearts of all About to die, he begged
to be stretched upon a cross of ashes
strewn on the floor, aud in this loving act
of humility hreathed his last, at the age of
sixty, A d. 1900, having been bishop fifteen
years. Ia life and death many miracles
at,ested his sauctity.
ST. Hugh was one day, like another TC-
bias, engaged in burying the dead, when
the king sent a messenger to iavite him to
dinner bat the holy bishop continuin g
his pious work, another was sent by the
impatient monarch to say that he was
waiting for him. On this, the bishop re-
marked "Why doth he expect me7 For
better 1t were an earthly king should eat
without me than that the commandment OF
the King of Heaven should be contemned
my food is to fulfil the will of the Eternal
| Father"

ST. GERTRUDE, ABBEs5.

. Gertrude was bern III lte year 1865 of a
noble Saxon family, and placed at the age
of five for education 10 the Bepedctlne
abbey of Rodelsdorf Her strong mind
was carefully cultivated, and she wrote
Latin with unusual elegance and force
above all che was perfect in humility and
modification, in obedience, and in all mon
ast,c observance. Her purity of intention
flooded her eoal with light, and gave her
great largeness and liberty of spirit. 1t
was said of her that in her mind was DO
error, on her heart no cloud; none could
resist her. Her life was crowded with
wonders. The gift of miracles set it's zeal
on the graces of this elect soul, and it
seemed that Jesus could refuse nothing to
her prayer. She has in obedience record
ed some of her visions, in which she traces
in words of indescribable beauty the init
mate converse of her soul with Jesus and
Mary. She was gentle to all, most gentle
to sinners; filled with devotion to the
Saints of God, to the souls in purgatory,
and above all to the Passion of Our Lord
and to His Sacred Heart. She ruled her
abbey with perfect wisdom and love for
forty years. Her life was one of great and
almost continual suffering, and her long
ing to be with Jesus was not granted till
A. d. 1884, when she had reached her
seventy second year. The prayers and
exercises of st. Gertrude are still used by
countless souls, which taste thereby the
sweetness OF the secret thlugs or 600.
AS she lay on her deathbed, languishing
with love rather than disease, Extreme
Unction was administered, and Jesus was
standing at her side, clothed with dazzling
glory, whispering to her words of unutter-
able consolation: "Now has come the
hour thou hast so longed for, the hour in
which 1 shall present thee to My EterD al
Father" Then the dying Saint saw the
Blessed Mother of God surrounded with
choirs of angels and Saints, and among
them the sisters whom she had trained
and guided. They sang hymns of para
disc, "Come away /; for the joys of heaven
await thee!" And when the last moment
arrived, Jesus drew nearer still, opened to
her His Sacred Heart, received intoit her
blessed soul, and bore it as a precious
pearl to heaven.

THE LIBERALS OF ECUADOR AND THE LATE
GARCIA MoRENo.-When the Catholic press
sttrib ated the murder of Garcia Moreno, the
President of Ecuador, to the Vaccinations of
the Revolutionary and Masonic party in that
country, European "Liberal" papers protested
against the outrage of holding an entire party
Iesponsihle for individual crime Bat a
Liberal journal of Ecuador the EIpectador, has
lately acknowledged quite openly that the
Liberals are responsible for the assassination
of Moreno. This journal loudly declares that
were Garcia Moreno still alive his energy
wonld lopg since have seen to the rebuilding
of the three great bridges which, more than q
year age, were destroyed by the eruption of
Cotopsxi, and continues thus "Why, then, it
may bs asked of us. did you co operate in the
death of Garcia Moreno We slew him because
he obstinately clung to his office, thing
which is quite opposed to republican forms
of Government. We slew bin because of the
Internal mania with which he used to entrust
everything to foreigners: We slew him 10.
cause he endeavored to bring back the anti.
quased and terrible doctrines of the times of
Philip the Second. For these and many other
reasons we slew him. But his strength of
character his zeGl for public works, his Won
derful and untiring energy, the authority with
which he inspired fear into the soldiery and
kept them in order, his nnselfsh devotion to
the 1blic good-all this fills Is with admra
tion, and we approve these virtues. How very
different is it with General Nietimilla" "
