THE ASHES OF LIFE.

Ten o'clock, and the echoes
Die out In the silent hall,
And shade my eyes from the freight
That shadows the parlOr wall
Over there In the corner,
A CLEAN in the dancing light,
Still precious beyond all telling,
Lie the letters burn tonight.
That parting is hard, my treasures,
It will darken my life, know;
The dream have dreamed was folly,
1t Is better to let you go.
And brush from my thrObbing temples
The heavy, ciingjng hair,
And smother my anguish, trying
To believe do not care.
gather them all together,
Not needing, though tear-dropS roll,
Though the chime of gladstone memory
Is ringing through my soul.
gather them all together.
NV idols, which proved but clay
Red flames tenderly fold them,
They are burning my heart away.
They drop from my quivering fingers
Into the fames'S dull roar,
And know that my dream Is ended
Forever and evermore.
The dreaded task is over,
Uttered the last gOOd-by,
And the smoke of my burning incense
Floats up to the blind, black sky.
