POSTPONING AND LOSING.

We mean to do it. Some day, some day,
We mean to slacken the feverish rush
That is fast wearing our souls away.
And grant to our goaded hearts hush
That is hold enough to make them hear
The footsteps Of angels drawing near.
We mean to do it. Oh. never doubt
When the burden of daytime toll is Ger,
Wen sit and muse while the stars come out.
AS the patriarch sat by the open door
Of his tent, with heavenward gazing eye,
To watch for tie angels passing by.
We see them afar at high noontide.
When fereely the worlds hot fashing's beat
Yet never have hidden them turn aside
And tarry awhile in converse sweet,
Nor prayed them to hallow the cheer W
spread
To drink of our wine and break our bread.
We promise our hearts that when the stress
Of life-work reaches the longed-for close.
When the weight that we groau with hinder
less,
Wen loosen our thoughts for such repose
As banishes cares disturbing din.
And then-we'll call the angels in.
The day that we dreamed Of comes at length,
When. tired of ever mocking quest,
And broken in spirit and shorn in strength.
We drop, indeed. at the door of rest.
And wait aud watch as the day comes on;
But the angels we meant to call are gone
