Divine Compassion.
BY JOHN @. WHITTIER.


Long since. dream of heaven had.
And still the vision haunts me oft;
I see the saints In white robes clad,
The martyrs with their palms aloft:
But hearing still In middle song
The ceaseless dissonance of wrong,
And shrinking, with hid faces, from the
strain
OF sad, beseeching eyes, full of remorse and
The glad song falters to a wall;
The harpng sinks to low lament;
Before the still uplifted veil
see the crowned foreheads bent,
Making more sweet the heavenly air.
With breathngs of unselfish prayer;
And Voice saith: 20 Pity which Is pain,
Love that weeps, Ali up my sufferings which
"shall souls redeemed by me refuse
To share my sorrow IN their turns
Or, sin forgiven, my gift abuse
Or peace with selfish uncOncern2
Has sanity ease no plying carer
Has faith no work, and love no prayer
While sin remains, and souls in darkness
Can heaven itself be heaven, and look unmov.
ed on hellr'
Then through the Gates of Pain, dream,
A wind of heaven blows coolly in;
Fainter the awful discords seem;
The smoke of torment grows more thin;
Tears quench the burning soil, and thence
Spring sweet, pale flowers Of penitence;
And through the dreary realm Of mans des.
pair,
Star-crowned, an angel walks, and, 10! Gods
hope is there!
Is It dream? Is heaven so high
That pity cannot breathe Its airp
Its happy eyes forever dry,
Its holy lips without prayer
My God! my God If thither led
Be thy free grace unmerited,
No crown nor palm be mine, but let me keep
A heart that still can feel and eyes that still
can weep.
