TOO LATE.


She lies 50 still tho lifelong day,
rho doth not movo or speak.
Tho roses long hare died away
Upon her dainty check.
Ispolc her harshy yestermorn-
IIor agonized surprise,
II hnunts mo row---and for my scorn
The love light In ler eycsl
And now each bittor word / said
Acccntuatcs my pain
Each taunt lcveloa at the dead
Has burnt into my brain
Who is wiser? whose feet
Must tread an earthly hclll
Or she who hears that welcome sweet:
"Fair spirit, all Is wclly'
Though God forgive mo in His grace,
When havo "crossed the bar"
When shall meet her face to face
Beyond the morning star.
dare not think that even there
Within the gates OF gold
Ny soul will show to her US fair
AS in the days old
The dear dead days Of long ago,
Whose tale was told above,
When In our hearts we felt the glow,
The rosy dawn OF love.
