THE LOCOMOTIVE ENGINEER.

Like flash of light the through express
Flies over the silver Incl
Bearing the burden Of human souls
On, on through the gray sunshine.
There, at the throttle bar, brown and grim,
His deep eyes looking ahead.
The engineer, in his oily clothes,
Stands firm and free from the dread.
The track is his own, all must give way,
YesI See at the town. on there!
The morning freight on the siding waits;
All is right; no call for care.
Oh, Godi An open switch! One move,
And his bar is quickly reversed;
Then the air-brakes drag. JumpI jump! or
death
On your soul will do its worst.
The engine lurches upon the switch;
Just ahead there stands the freight;
For himself? All, we'll, ask Fate!
A frightful crash the passengers saved,
With their faces white and dread;
But under his engine, crushed and torn.
The brave engineer lies dead.
Think, as you fly mid the sunshine bright.
Or through the storm and rain,
By day and night, DER plain and gorge.
OF the engineer o f the train.
Think of the thousands of souls be-holds
In his grasp, without fear,
Think of the stroin on Hsrvs and brain
> And pray for the on aineer.
