that is where they reap the greater portion

And give 10 rest.

BEFORE THE GLASS.

She stood before a looking glass
A winsOme. pretty, dark-eyed Lass
Her head little to one side,
As though all mankind she defed.
With cheek so rosy, neck so white,
Her long hair DER her shoulders fell,
Her brown eyes sparkled with delight
1t needed no soft speech TO tell
That she was fair; she knew il well.
And her soliliquy ran thus
How awful slow the time would pass
II il wasn't for this looking-glass.
