THE SUSCEPTIBLE PARSoN.

They considered the parson trif1e too young
For the staid congregation he'd settled among
Yet the deacon acknowledged he never bad
heard
Such natural reading of holy word
Twas the voice of the soul with the tone OF
the belll
And the verdict SO just
Was taken in trust
By the good deacon's daughter. the beautiful
Nell.
This handsome young pastor was modest, de.
vout,
Always treading the path which he pointed
them out;
But the best Of his sermons, by common &C
cord.
Was an able discourse on THE Love of the
Lordm
And he treated his subject remarkably well,
But his thoughts often ran
On the love of man
On the love Of a clergyman young for Nell.
His sermons grew tender and so did his heart;
Shooting arrows of truth, yet receiving the
dart
From the soft eyes Of Nell. with their aim
double fold;
Thus love made him timid, yet faith made him
bold,
And the secret remained that he never dared
He could preach well and pray
If his heart would but stay
In the pulpit, and not in the pew there with
Nell.
His preaching became such labor Of love,
With its constant communion below and
While he sat in the pulpit ere service begun
With his head on his hand, as is commonly
done;
II he peeped through his fingers, why, no one
could tell
Though he knew it was human
To gaze on fair woman,
BE deemed it not wicked to gaze upon Nell.
For the youth of mis- flock he was fervent in
prayer;
But one morning in church, certain gossips de-
clare,
BY slip of the tongue, by an error of speech,
While the pastor undoubtedly meant to be-
seech
The good Lord to keep all the young men from
well.
That eternal shade,
He certainly prayed,
THE good Lord would keep all the young men
from Nell!"
To consult him on matters of church and of
state,
AS we term a church fair and no truth violate,
Nell had called at the study. The door stood
ajar;
The pastor was kneeling as often they are,
And she could not retreat without breaking
the spell
With her eyes on the floor,
Waiting there at the door,
Like o vision of peace, stood the beautiful Nell.
He was pleading for all, but, as one might infer,
Grew more eloquent when he was praying for
her.
Why he singled her out she could not under
stand,
Till she heard him ask heaven for her heart
and her hand.
No petition e'er suited maiden so well
1t is piety rare,
When Cupid's at prayer
For he told to his God what he should have
told Nell.
As angels appeared TO the sainted of yore
She knelt by his side on the carpeted floor,
Put her soft hand in his as a final amen.
He soon found the vision was mortal, and then
He, blushing. caressed her. nor could she rebel,
For was she not there
In answer to prayer?
Thus God joined together tie pastor and Nell.
1t was heaven to him gazing into her eyes;
1t was heaven to him with the blue of the
skies
In the thought of an angel becoming his bride
He forgot all the angels but her at his side,
And loves sweet forgetfulness over them fell,
TIL she said. Il declare,
We forgot the church fart"
I'm now holding the fair!' he replied, hold
ing Nell.
