the minister, is dead; and the secret

How grand in storm, and fair in calm, the old
North Sea can look,
I've wondered to hear them talking, how to
mimic In music or song,
The voice that thrills the brooding air with its
thunder low and long;
Since never aught hut itself, wot. could

When its breakers rise to the east winds call,
to crash on the rocky shore.
But rough or smooth, in shade or shine, the
face OF the mighty main
Can speak Of little else to INC, but memory,
fear, or pain.
Father and husband, and bold bright boy, it
has taken them one by one;
shall lie alone in the churchyard there, when
my weary days are done.
God never sent me maiden BARN, to stay by
me to the last,
So sit by the restless tides alone, by the grave
of all my past;
By the waves so strong and pitilcss, that have
drowned LIES JOY for me,
And think of ''thc land where all shall meet,
the land where is no more sea-"
Yet cannot rest in meadow or fell, or the
quiet inland lanes,
Where the great trees spread their rustling
arms over the smiling plains.
I can't draw breath in the country, al!
shadnwed, and green, and dumb.
The want Of the sea is ut my heart, hear ii

Where the bright shells CLEAN, and the fishes

On the sand reach, or the tall cliff side, ere
we pass to the great White Throne.
So Summer and Winter, all alone, by the
breakers lip l wait.
Till see the red light flush the clouds, as lie
opens the golden gate;
Aud though at the sound of the rising waves
l ortimcs trembc and weep,
When the air is void of their glorious voice,
can neither rest or sleep!
And strangest OF all the promises, writ in the
