Unmarked, continuous movements %:
The earth swift flight, times steady flow,
We hardly feel or see, OF know.
Thus stcadfaSt goodness, moving on
Without a pause, is scarcely known:
Yet all men miss it when It's gone.
So to this town there came one day
a sense of something passed away,
Some influence, guidance, help, and stay.
And when the people OF the place
Came in, and looked upon her face,
Transtiyured by deaths solemn grace,
There with the rest, amazed they find
Him, to whom She alone was kind,
Well clothed and in lis proper mind.
And when a curious stranger read
Her name upon the plate, he said
she is my friend, and she is dead.
90 But now I'll try aild work a bit,
For if INV lazy ways ! quit
Twill please her when she hears OF 1t.
We all through love our life receive,
Since only while we love we live,
And life cannot in death hflievc.
Thus, to a mind i'll darkness sealed.
Love showed the truth from thought con

Her husband, children, neighhorS, saw

He stopped, he saw the bread and meat,
Looked quickly up and down the street
Seized it, and fled with hasty feet.

And 10. upon the shelf there stood
Once more dish Of Slvory food.
And every day he came 10 find

Nawned some faint thought that men were

And, Though no word between them passed,
He knew he had a friend AT last,
And Sunshine on his path WAS cast
