tell his wife. 1t is to a male friend he
is tempted to divulge them. or to q

is safe. But q married woman is much

THE MAN.

THE DOOMED MAN.
BY REV.. ]. A. ALEXANDER, d. d.
There is a time-we know nj when
A point-we know not where
That marks the destiny Of men
To glory or despair.
There ia a line, by us unseen,
That crosses every path
The hidden boundry between
Gods patience and His wrath.
To cross that limit IL to die
To die, a. il by stealth:-
1t does not quench the beaming eye,
Nor pale the glow OF health.
The conscience may still be at ease,
The spirits light and gay;
That which is pleasing, still may please,
And care be thrust away.
But on the forehead God has set
Indelibly. q mark
Unseen by man-for man as yet
Is blind and In the dark.
But angels know the fatal sign,
And tremble at the sight;
And devils trace each livid line
With desperate delight.
Indeed, the doomed ones path below,
Like Eden may have bloomed;
He cannot, docs not, will not know
Nor feel that he is doomed.
He feels, perchance. that all is we'll,
And every fear Is claimed;
He lives-he dies-he wakes In hell,
Not only doomed-but damned.
o! where is that mysterious bourne
BY which our path 10 crossed;
Beyond which God Himself hath sworn,
That he who goes IL lostf
How long may w 60 on In sinl
How long will God forbearf
Where does hope eud-and where begin
The confines Of despair
An answer from the skies 10 sent;
"Ye who from God depart,
While it 10 called to-day, repent,
And harden not your heart"
The above is reprinted by request. II
