MerriIy, and all unconscious,

Merrily and all unconscious,
 With trustful, happy glee,
 The streams of water
 Swept on childlike and free.
 Till toward the foot of the mountain,
 rhs6 It dashed % seethIng tide s.a,,,a..
 In shy, yet daring pride.
 Before it lay many pathway;
 Each led to an unknown cline,
 Unknown alike their periIs,
 Unknown their joys sublime.
 Scarce had it tarrfed an instant
 When like dainty wave,
 It broke in pearls full many,
 Then swept on strong and brave.
 
 Thus flow our changeful days
 Thro' youths bright fields or darksome ways,
 With toil and pleasure rife,
 Till deep and broad is grown our life;
 And the melody is low,
 Is sweet, like the river in it's flow, =
 AS each victory we win.
 Then let US in each cross rejoice,
 For thus gentle voice
 Doth whisper, as it joy assures,
 He conquers, who endures,'
