ENDURANCE.

How much the heart may bear, and yet not break
How much the flesh may ssiffer and not die.
Iquestion much IL any psts or ache
or soul or body brings our end more nigh.
Death chooses his own time; till that is worn
All evils may be borne.
We shrink and shudder at the surgeons knife,
Each nerve recoiling from the cruel steel,
Whose edge seems searching for the quivering ldel
Yet TO our sense the bitter pangs reveal
That STILL although the trembling flesh be torn
This also can be borne.
We see a sorrow rising In our way,
And try TO fee from the approaching III,
We seek some small escape-we weep and pray,
But when the blow falls then our hearts are
still
Not that the pain is Of its sharpness shorn,
But think 1t must be borne.
We wind our life about another life,
We hold it closer, dearer than our own;
Anon IL fants and falls in deadly strife,
Leaving us stunned, and stricken, and alone;
But ahl we do not die with those we mourn;
This also can be borne.
Behold, we live through all things, famine thirst,
Bereavement, pain; all grief and misery,
All woe and sorrow; life infiicts its worst
On soul and body, but we cannot die,
Though we be sick, and tired, and faint, and worn
Lol all things can be borne.

royal feast off this prize, and, saving
the feathers, he traded them in to our
family butcher for tenderloin steak,
which he carried to a poor widow, who
cooked it on shares. Epic never could
abide raw steaks.
Later on in life he evinced u pen

small market basket from the widow
he haunted marshy lake where the
croakers aboundcd. He soon became
an adept mt catching them, and when
his basket was full, off he would trot to
