UNREST.

The farther you journey and wander
From the sweet simple faith Of your youth,
The more you peer into the yonder
Aud scsr'ii Tor the root Of all truth,
No matter what SECRETS uncover
Their vcil,'i mystic brows In your quest,
Or close Vn your astral sight hover.
S:ill. sill shall you walk with unrest
II you s,'l for strange things you shall 1nd thoL
But tla finding shall bring you 20 grief;
The dead lock tho portals behind them.
Aud hc who breaks through Is q thief.
Tho soul with much il.gottcn plumber.
With its Premature knowledge oppressed,
Shall gropc Ia unsg,tisfcd wonder
Away by the shores Of unrest
Though bold hands lift up tho thin curtain
That hide, ti',t unknown from our sight:
Though shadswy faith becomes certain
OF the new life that follows deaths night;
Though miracles past comprehcnding
Shall siar;l1 tho heart IN your breast.
Still. sii!l will your thirst be unendlng.
Aud your SOUL will bo sad with unrest
There are truths too sublime and tn holy
To grasp with mortal minds touch.
We are happier far 10 bc lowiy;
Content means no, knowing too much.
Peace dwell, not with hearts that aro yeai1llnx
To fa,hom all iabyrinths ungiesscd.
And the soul that IL bent on vast learning
Shall find with its knowlcdyr--unrcst.
