like face and in her dulled eyes there
broke light such as the ray had never
seen before. At the sight of it now he
flashed back up to the heavens beyond
the clouds. Come" he cried to his
comrades, come and see, for there is
something falrer than aught that has
been before, fairer than the sunlit sea
or than the laughter on children lips. y
His comrades flocked to his call and
poured down through the crevice in the
Clouds widening it as they went. Then
they stretched themselves a broad path
of light, from the sky above to the lone
ly boat, which they bathed in their soft
radiance
Across the storm driven sea, cleaying
the waves asunder with stately motion,
a great ship came. The eyes of those
on board her, wearied with gloom, turn
ed gladly to that bright spot on sky
and sea, and turning saw the boat, saw
the white face of the woman and her
waving signal. So the ship altered her
course, and soon the mother and her
burden stood safe upon the decks.
Evening drew near. The tempest had
fled now, and thus left alone the tired,
gray waves, their strength failing and
their fury spent were heaving III sullen
impotence to rest. The clouds, falling
away from the sky, gathered themselves
in soft, changing masses of vapor
around the edge of the sea The sun,
sinking lower and lower, called to the
rays to come. Sadly they heard the call.
They babe farewell to their beloved
earth in passion Of fervid color Upon
wave and cliff, mountain and cloud,
they rained their glowing kisses, and
earth 5 beauty quiyered into new glory,
as does IA maiden's i'll her lovers en-
brace Then they drew together a road
of golden splendor on tho sea as they
crowded westward after their depart
ing king. With slow, majestic motion
he sank to rest.
But the little ray hung back He had
found the cloud who had stood his
friend that morning, and he waited to
give her goodby He was filling her
now with his own golden glory. of light
as he whispered to her of all the beauty
which was in the world. Alas, she
would stay with it still in the wonder
