SHE AND /.
BY JAMES BERRY BENsEL.


And l said, ''she is dead, could not brook
Again on that marvellous face to look
But they took my hand and hey led me in,
And they left me alone with my nearest kin,
Once again alone in that silent place,
Ny beautiful dead and face TO face.
And could not speak, and L could not stir,
But stood and with love looked on her.
With love and with rapture, and strange sur
prise
Hooked on the lips and the close-shut eyes.
On the perfect rest and the calm content
And the happiness in her features bent
And the thin white hands that had wrought So
much
Now nerveIess to kisses or fevered touch.
My beautiful dead, who had known the strife
The pain and the sorrow shat we call life
Who had never faItered beneath her cross
Nor ynurmured when loss followed sw on
loss.
And the.snile that sweetened her lips Away
Lay light on her heaven-closed mouth that day.
I smoothed from her hair syery thread,
And wept, but could not think her dead
I felt with wonder too deep for speech,
Sne could tell what only the angels teach.
And down over her mouth leaned my ear,
Lest there might be something should hear.
Then out from the silence between us stole
A message that reached to my inmost soul
Why weep you to day who have wept before
That the road was rough mus journey o'er?
why mourn that my lips can answer you not
When anguish and sorrow are both forgot?
Behold, all my life have longed for rest,
Yea, cen when held you upon my breast
''And now that lie in GREATNESS sleep,
Instead OF rejoicing you sigh and weep.
MY dearest know that you would not try to
break
you could-my sumber and have me wake,
For though life was full of the things that
bless,
Iha7e never till now known happiness
Then l dried my tears and with lifted head
I left my mother, my beautiful dead.
