EASTER MORNING

l.
Usters spirit of spring-tme,
Awake from thy slumbers deep
Arise! and with hands that are glowing
Put off the white garments of sleepl
Make myself fair, goddess
In new and resplendent array,
For the footsteps of Him who has risen
Shall be heard in the dawn Of day.
Flushes the trailing arbutus
Low under the forest leaves
A sign that the drowsy goddess
The breath of her Lord perceives.
While He suffered, her pulse beat numbly;
While He slept, she was still with pain;
But now He swakes-He has risen
Her beauty shall bloom again.
q bark in the budding woodlands,
Now far, now near, is beard
The first prelusive MARBLE
OF rivulet and of bird.
. listen the Jubilate
From every bough is poured,
Aud earth in the smile Of spring-tne
Arises TO greet her Lord
Radiant goddess Aurora
Open the chambers OF dawn,
Let the hours like garla0d OF graccs
Enrich the chariot of morn.
Thou dost herald no longer Apollo,
Inc GOD OIL the sunbeam ana lNfet
The pride of his empire is ended,
And pale is his armor of fire.
From a loftier height than Olympus
Light flows, from the temple above,
And the mists Of legends are scattered
In the dawn of the Kingdom of Love
Co ne forth from the cloud-land of fable,
For day in full splendor make room
For triumph that lost not its glory
As il paused in the sepulchre's gloom.
She comes the bright goddess of morning.
In crimson and purple array;
Far down on the hill-tops she losses
The first golden lilies of dav.
On the mounta ms her sandals are glowing.
Der the valley she speeds on the wing,
Till earth is all rosy and radiant
For the feet of the new-rlsen King.
Open the gates of the Temple.
Spread branches of palm and Of bay;
Let not the spirits of nature
Alone deck the Copqueror's way.
While Spring from her death sleep arises
And JOYOUS His presence awaits,
While mornings smile lights up The heavens,
Open the Beautiful Gates
He is here The long watches are over
The stone from the grave rolled away
"We shall Sleep" was the sigh OF the midnight
1--WE shall rise - is the song of to-day.
o Music! no longer lamenting,
On pinions of tremulous flame
Go soaring to meet the Beloved,
And swell the new song of his fame
The altar 10 snowy with blossoms
The font is vase of perfume,
On pillar and chancel are twInng
Fresh garands of eloquent bloom.
CAria is risen! with glad lips We utter,
And lar up the infinite height
Archangels the pgan re-echO,
And crown Him with Lilies Of Light

and at his request the clerk put rece1pIo' W.
tor iyo dollars into one of the shoes. Iho pre-
eentstion was made and the lovers were happy
"a lovers should be. But mark the sequel.,
The girl examined the shoes in the daylight
