A SONG OF A VINE.
A dingy room meath a slauting roof,

"A dingy room meath slaating roof,
And toll from morn till night
My life would be narrow and sad indeed,
lf'twere not for one sweet sight;
Each day see from my window small
The vine that grows on the opposite wall
Dancing leaves of brightest green
Wave in the morning shine,
Mortar and bricks are lost TO view
Meath n web of cendrilS fine.
And the winds of Heaven come down to play
With every c.ingins feathery spray.
Sky from nv window cannot 500
Blue let IL be, or gray,
But sunshine AMI green can fill my eye,
And brighten nay toiliny day.
That bit Of gladness that grows outside
Makes work more easy and life more wide
Thank God for the vine that grows on the wall!
IT'S His own though: that see
While His sun shines and leaves are green,
I'll trust His love for me-
The Hand that made each tendril dear
IL the gracious land that placed me here.
But days will come when, stripped and bare,
The dripping vine will swing
Against the wall, while wind and rain
Beat down on the ruined thing;
Days when toll unsatisfed
AND see 10 cheering green outside.
Yes. winter must come to each and all,
And days when work is vain
The winds tina: sob through driving snow
But seem to voice Ely pain:
Wilma duh and fruiiless sound.
Without-a Greariness profound
Oh, foolish hearts, what thoughts ore thesef
Again seem to hear
The message OF the gladstone wins
Reecho,ng on my car,
And bidding me still hope and wait
For better days and happier fate.
Our Father loves US Still n Heaven,
His sun still shines below,
The clouds viii part and gentler winds
Blow DER the melting snow,
Leaves yet will bloom, and birds will sing,
And toll its rccompense will bring.
