In the far long ago,
Beyond that sea, which sewers by Its how
OF time and distance, this the known and real
From the dim past, unknown and half ideal,
In furnace heat that thrice refined the gold
And crushed the dross within its burning hold,
Was cast bell And for its massive frame,
The people one and all, moved by the same
Quick impulse, all their treasures were TO bring:
The coronet and sceptre Of the king,
The gold the rich bad boarded and the scsnty store
OF precious things that the poor linger Ger;
The msiden's ornament the childrens toys,
The relics Of the lost which passing time alloys
rhe remnant of the chain struck from the slave,
The pieces of the swords which freedom gave.
All these they brought TO heap the blazing fire,
Which rose, at each new treasure offered, higher.
Aud the wise gave the words which they had penred
a. II they knew
That. made Of things which men had cherished.
Tried in quick flames wherein much had perished,
The bell the peoples thoughts might voice.
Their sorrows utter, with JOY rejoice.
At last the treasures had been brought, the gold re-
fined;
The bell swung in the tower, swayed by breezes kind
STILL for a space,-ai last its silence ends;
And TO the people listening, IL sends
Its word, their written ones come back
To them; nor does II, in its compass, lack
One quiver ofthe sweetness or the sorrow
That hallowed each small gift still does II borrow,
From all the relics of true, grand deeds done,
Their truth and grandeur, and the many thoughts
II speaks n one.
Still in these days do people, moved still by varying
Unite for mutual purposes, their gifts, and deeds,
and words.
They too, strive still to utter in form that shall en-
dure.
The doings Of the past, which stands unchanged and
Behind the changing present, and the still more
Unstable future, which rises mp before.
In form that, like the record Of the years forever
gone,
Shall firm and changeless be TO look upon.
Not In a bells clear ringing note,
Uttered from iron throat,
Would they voice the victory and the sorrow Of the
past
But In form Of granite, which shall outlast
The changing years For this they bring
Each one, or small or great, his offering,
sure that when before them IL shall rise,
When all their various offerings shall take form be-
their ewes,
II amy noble impulses, If any memories dear,
Tender associations. deep felt griefs are here,
II any think Of triumph, and If any think of woe
Softeneti one the other haowed. left behind In the
long ago,
Tw marble shall speak mutely, and like the old-tine
bell,
To each his memory, his triumph his grief shall
tell;
And II any of It's silence and it's muteness shall com
plain,
II will answer make,-"Not I, but your thoughts
were empty, yain!"
