THREE WORDS.

There are three lessons would write
Three words as with a burning pen
In tracing of eternal light,
Upon the hearts OF men
Have Hope Though clouds environ now
And gladneSs hides her face in scOrn.
Put thou th4 shadows from thy brow
No night hath but its morn.
Have FaHh. Where'er thy bark is driven
The calm diSport. the tempest's wrath
Know thou God rules the hosts of heayen,
The ipha 'itanis OF earth.
Have lace. Not love alone for one,
But man as man thy brother call,
And scatter like the circling sun,
Thy charities ON all.
Thus grave these lessons outhy soul
Hope. Faith and Iove-and thou shalt ina
Strength. when Life 5 surgeS rudest roll,
Light. when thou vert hlind.-Schdicr.
