story Is q sad one. Mrs. Longfellow's
clothing caught fire and she was so Sc
verely burned that ucath ensued. The
Mountain of tho Holy Cross to which
allusion is made is one of tho Rockies,
and on one of the sides near the top
two ravines cross each other at right
angles. These becoming filed with
snow during the winter remain white
and dazzling throughout the entire
summer, when the other snow has dis
appeared, thus showing a white cross
ON the mountain side.l
In the long sleepless watches Of the night
A gentle face, the face OF one long dead,
Looked At me from the wall, where round its
head
The night4amp sheds halo OF pale light.
Here ia this room she died, and soul more white
Never through martyrdom Of fire was lea
To its repose nor can In books be read
The story OF life more benedight.
There Is q mountain in the distant West
That, sun-defying. In its deep ravines
Displays q cross OF snow upon its side
Such is the cross bear upon my breast,
These eighteen years thro' All the changing
scenes
And seasons, changeIess as the day she died.
