MEASURING THE BABY.

We measured the riotuus baby
Against the cottage wall
a lily grew nj the threshold
And the boy WAS lust rs tall;
roya! tgcr-llly.
With spots OF purple and gold,
And heart iik" jeweled ChallCc
The fragrant dew To- hold.
Without the hiackbirds whistl.
High up IN the old root trees,
And To and fro ut the window
The red rose rocked her bees,
And the wee pink ii-ts OF the baby
Were never moment still
Snatchng at shine and shadow
That danced on the window sill.
HIS eyes were wide rs blue bells
His mouth like y flower unblown--
Two little bare feet like funny white mice,
Peep"d out from his snowy gown,
And We thought. with a thrill OF rapture,
That had yet touch of pain.
~h"n June rolls round with her roses,
Wen measure the b; By again.
All ne! III darkenei chamber,
With the sunshine shut away;
Through tears that fell like bitter rain,
We measured our baby to-day;
And the little bare feet that were dlmpled,
And sweet rs budding rose,
Lay side by side together,
In the hush of a long repose.
Up from The dainty pillow,
Whit. as the RISEN dawn,
Tn" fair little face lay smiling,
With the Light nf heaven thereon;
And the dear ll,'l" hands. like rose leaves
Dropped from tn" rose, lay still,
Never to snatch ut the sunrhin.
That cr-pt 10 the shrDudrd sill.
We measured the leeping ha',y,
With ribbons white a. snow,
For the shining rosewood casket
That waited him below;
And uut uf the Larken.d chamber,
We went w!tn ChIliless mOam-
To the height of the slniesS angels

Perhaps not; but we are reminded

by an unsuspecting bird aud carried
off into the ether, the reel going round
