THE GIFT OF THE SEA.

The dead child lay IN the shroud.
And the widow watched beside.
And her mother slept and the Channel swept
The gale in the teeth of the tide
But the widow laughed At all.
Il have lost my man IN the sea,
And the child is dead. Be SUI" abe said;
"Wnsf more can ye do 10 me-"
And TIE widow watched the dead,
And the candle guttered low.
And she tried 70 sing the Passing Song
That bids the poor soul go
And s.Nary take ron now" she said.
THAT lay against my heart
And .Mary smooth your crib tonight
But she could NOS say depart.
Then came cry from the sea,
But the storm lay thick on the glass;
And Heard you nothing, mother?p she said;
"iIis the child that waits TO pass.
And the nodding mother sighed:
"'Tis lambing eve in the wnins
For why should the chrietened soul CRY out
That never knew of sin?'
sob, feet have held in my hand!
On, hands at my heart 10 catch!
How can they know the road 10 go,
And how can they lift the latchr'
They laid sheet to the door,
With the little quilt atop,
That it might not hurt from the cold or the dirt,
The widow lifted the latch
And strained her eyes TO see;
And opened the door on the bitter shore
To let the soul go free.
There was neither glimmer nor ghost;
There was neither spirit or spark.
And Heard We nothing, mother" she said;
" lis crying for me in the dark.
And the nodding mother sighed;
"'Tis sorrow makes We dull;
Have ye yet TO learn the city OF the terns
Or the wall of the wind-biown guil?"
"The terms are blown inland,
The gray gull follows the pillow;
Twas never a bird. the voice heard:
Oh, mother, hear it nowi'
ellie still, dear lamb. lie still;
The child IL safe from harm,
It's the ache in your breast that breaks your
rest,
And the feel OF an empty arm"
She put her mother aside;
I'm Mary's name let be,
For the peace of my soul must co." she said;
And she went to the calling sea.
In the heel of the wind-bit pier,
Where the twisted weed was Piled
She came &c the life she had missed by an hour
For she came to little child.
She laid it into her breast,
And back to her mother she came;
But It would not feed and it would not heed,
Tho she gave it her own child's name.
And her own in the shroud lay stark;
And "God for give us, mother" she said,
I'VE let 1t die in the dark."
