THE TWO GLASSES.

There sat two glasses filled to the brim
On rich mans table, rim to rim.
One was rlddy and red as blood,
And one as clear as the crystal food.
Said tbe glass of wine to the paler brother,
Get MS tell the tales of the past to each other;
I can tell of banquet and revel and mirth
And the proudest and grandest souls on earth
Fell under my touch as though struck by blight,
Where was king, for ruled in might.
From the heads Of kings have torn the crown;
From the heights OF fame have hurled men down:
have blasted many an hOnOred name:
Ihaye taken virtue and given shame;
| have tempted the youth with sip, a taste
That has made his future barren waste.
Far greater than king ami.
Orthan any army beneath the sky
have made the arm of the driver fail,
And sent the train from the iron rail;
have made good ships go down at sea.
And the shrieks of the lost were sweet to me;
For they said, Behold how great you be!
Fame, strength, wealth, genius before you fall
For your might and power are over all
Ho! no! pale brother" laughed the wine.
|'Can you boast of deeds as great as mine
Said the water glass: Il cannot boast
Of king dethrOned or a murdered host:
But can tell of heart once sad
BY my crystal drops made light and glad
OF thirsts I've quenched, of brOws I've laved;
Of hands have cooled and souls have saved
have leaped through the valley, dashed down the
mountain,
Flowed in the river and played in the fountain,
Slept in the sunshine and dropped from the sky:
And everywhere gladdened the landscape and eye
have eased the hot forehead of fever and pain,
1 have made the parched meadows grow fertile will
grain.
can tell of the powerful wheel of the mill
That ground out the -four and turned at my will.
l can tell of manhood, debased by you.
That lifted up and crowned anew.
cheer, help, strengthen and aid:
gladden. the heart of man and maid?
set the chained wne-captive free.
And all the better for knowing me-"
These are the tales they told each other,
The glass of wine and paler brother,
As they sat together filed to the biim,
On the rich mans table, rim to rim.
