Soghy with fowers or SO sweet with song,
A. that OF the rose and the ripened cherry
Nhen nights are tranquil aud days are longt
The earth has forgotten her time Ot sadness
r,e lhe silence and shadows have passed away;
ihere Is hothing but universal gladness
Among tie hay.
This ia the season when lads and las.es
Are up betimes III the sunny field;
When the swish of the scythr laws low the grasaea
And the passing hours new pleasures Weld
The time of tile festive, sweet hay making
When the sporting laugh aud the ioyous word
And the song of grateful love .partAking
Are all day heard.
Why should we squander the hours in signing
That the dancing grasses So soon are dyingt
Let us be merry amid the hay
There is time enough for the coming sorrow.
There ID wealth Of beauty around us yet;
Let us use to-day md leave tomorrow,
Nor God forget.
Blue and bright is the skv above us
sweet with flowers is the scented air;
All things whisper that God doth love us.
The forest gades are with jOv songs ringing.
From morn to night OF the happy day
Let human voices TO Him he singing
From helts OF hay.
Though far away are the DAYS OF childhood

There Is pleasure stlll IN the nnld and Wild wood
And joy for all dwelerSin Gods fair earth.

And We learn lesson that makes faith 6older

Nothing is coming that need Cypress US;
Let ia raise in triumph trustful song:
God ~ our Father, and he Will bless US,
His love makes summer the whole wear long
Though skies should darksn and flowers be falling.
Though life DO stormy aud days grow din,
Gods power and mercy are aye prevailing;
We trust in Him.
