A SUMNER DAY.

The flowers lay sleeping beneath the dew
But the Mother had watched the whole nigh
through.
The Wild sweet carol Of one small bird
Was the sound that the weary watcher heard
And the summer dawn grew into the Morn,
But still she sat weeping beside her first
born.
Life was fading from cheek and brow,
And the Mothers heart was hopeless now.
Not one sound in the chamber of death
Was heard-saye the Maiden's laboring
breath.
No word of rnurmur the Mother spake;
Silent and calm are the hearts that break.
Morning passed-and the Noon 50 still
Bathed in warm I0yeliue=s wood and hill
Slumberous airs from the West went by,
And the Mother watched for her child 10 die
Afternoon came-aud the Maiden lay
Lileless and sOulless-a mould Of clay
Rain came down as from eyes that wept
Watching was Over-the Maiden slept.
Through the quiet falling Of evening rain
The birds soft carol stole IN again
Then the Mother said 'Tis amessage for me,
To tell me, child, that It's well with thee /!
And the SUMMER day ended, for ''late or long,
Every day weareth 10 eyeu-song.'
