lesson in itself sublime,
A lesson worth enshrininR, If
Is this. II take no heed of time,
save when the sun is shining;"
These motto words dial bore,
And wisdom never breaches
tn human bearts a better lore
Than this short sentence teaches.
"A life is sometimes bright and fair,
And sometimes dark and lonely,
Let as forget the toll and care,
And mote bright hours only"
There Is no grave on earth's broad chart
But has some bird to cheer it;
So hope sings on in every breast,
Although we may not hear 1t;
And if to-day the heavy wing
of sorrow Is sOppressing, t
Perchance tO-Inorrow's sun may bring
The weary heart q blessing.
We bid the Joyous moments haste,
And then forget their glitter;
We take the cup OF life, and taste
No portion but the bitter.
But we should teach our hearts to deem
Its sweetest drops the strongest,
And pleasant hours should ever seem
To linger with us longest.
The darkest shadows of the night
Are just before the morning;
Then let us wait the coming light,
All boding phantoms scorning.
And while we're passing on the tide
or Times fast ebbing river, 5
Let's pluck the blossoms by its side
And bless the gracious Giver.
