The stranger-An Eastern Legend.

The Stranger-An Eastern Legend.
An aged man came late to Abrsham's tent
The sky was dark and all the plain was bare.
He asked for bread; his strength was well-niRh
spent;
His hsgeArd look implored the tenderest care
The food was brought. He sat with thankful
eyes,
But spake no grace, nor bowed he toward the
east.
'6afs-shelrersd here from dark and angry skies,
The bounteOus table seemed o royal feast.
But ere his hand had touched the tempting fare,
The Patriarch rose. ana leaning on his rod.
"Stranger," he said, "dosJ thou not bow in
pFsyer7
Godf"
NE answered, "Nay." The Patriarch sadly
! Thou hast my pity Go! eat not my bread"
Another came that wild and fearful night.
The fierce winds ragged and darker grew the
sky;
+ And Abraham knew the Lord God was nigh.
'a'Where is that aged mani" the Presence said,
"That asked Tor shelter from the driving
bastf
Who made thee master Of thy Masters breadH
What right hast thou the wanderer forth to
oast7"
''Forgive me, Lord" the Patriarch answer
made,
With doSneast look, with bowed and trembl-
ing knee,
NAh mel the stranger might with me have stald,
But, o my God he would not worship Thee"
s'l've borne him long" God said, land still 1
couldst thou not lodge him one night in thy
gste9"

To a Hurt Child,

What, art thou hurt, Sweet SO am I,
Cut TO the heart;
Though may neither moan nor cry,
70 ease the smart
Where was 1t Love3 Just here7 So wide
Upon they cheekf
Oh, happy pain that needs no pride,
And may dare speak,
Lay here thy pretty head. Que touch
viii heal its worst;
While l. whose wound bleeds overmuch,
Go all unnursed.
There, Sweet Run back now to thy play;
Forget thy woes.
/, too, was sorely hurt this day
But no one knows.

A Revival HYMN.

But my Lawd was strongest, de rope go slack,

But took my Bible and hit him tween de

If you want dem golden streets to see,
An hear dem angels singin' free,

whichever way the wind doth blow
Some heart Is glad to have it so;
Then blow 1t east OF blow it west,
The wIud that blows-that wind is best.
My little craft sails not alone:
A thousand fleets from every zone
Are out upon thousand seas.
What blows for one a favoring breeze
Might dash another, with the shock
OF doom, upon some hidden rock.
Ana so 1 do not dare to pray
For winds to watt me on my. way,
But leave 1t to higher will
To stay OF speed me- trusting still
That all is well, and sure that He
Who launched my bark will sail with me
Through storm and calm, and will not fail,
Whatever breezes may prevail,
To land me, every peril past,
Within His shelterinR heaven at last.
Then, whatsoever wind doth blow,
MY heart is glad to have it SO;
and blow it east or blow it west,
That wind that blOws-that wind is best.

His voice was like shout.

In the crypt at the foot of the stairs
They lay there, a score of the dead.
They could hear the pr,est at his prayers,
And the litany overhead.
They knew when the great crowd stirred
As the host was lifted on high;
And they smiled in the dark when they heard
Some light-footcd nun trip by.
Side by side on their shelves
Fer years and years they lay;
And those who misbehaved themselves
Had their coffin plates taken away.
Thus ia the legend told
In monkish, black-letter rhyme,
Explaining those plaques of gold
That vanished from time to time.

Rarest mood of all the year!
Aimless. idle, and content;
Sky and earth and atmosphere
Wholly INDECENT.
Low and clear, ana pure and deep.
Ripples of the river sing
Water-lilies, half asleep,
Drowsed with listening.
Tremulous reflex of skies
Skies above aud skies below
Paradise and Paradise
Blending even 80!
Blossoms with their leaves nnrolled
Laughtngiy, AS they were lips
Cleft with rudy beaten gold
Tongues of petal-tips.
RuAh and reed, and thorn and vine
dumped with grasses 1.-the aud tall
And web OF summer shine
Woven round 1t all.
Back and forth and to and fro.
Flashing scale and wing as one,
Dragonfiies that come and 90,
6huttled by the sun.
Fairy songs and lullahies
Fine as phantaey conceives-
Echoes wrought of cricket crics
Sifted through the leaves.
Der the rose. with drowsy buzz,
Hangs the bee, and stays his kiss,
Even as my fancy does,
Darling, over this.
Lo, let us forget all care,
And as lisrless as the day
Drift adown 1t, half aware,
Anywhere we may.
Drift, and curve, and deviate,
Veer and eddy, float and flow,
Waiver, swerve and undulate,
As the bubbles go.
