years. Through the medium OF laws
which they nave procured 20 be passed

A PARADISE SONG.

The day was hot, the way was long. the
feet were tired. 80 tired,
The goal Is won toward which we strove,
the goal so long desired,
The eyes which sought the distant hope
through wavering mists of care
See 1t at last, oh close. 30 close in Paradise
the Fair.
The black. black night through which we
CROPPED is turned to radiant day,
The doubt to certainty more glad than song
or speech can say;
The battling winds which buffeted beyond
our strength to bear
Blew US along the blessed way to Paradise
the Fair.
We doubted and we tainted and we seemed
to miss the road
AS. stumbling on, and painfully, we toiled
beneath our load;
And the uphill left us breathless and the
tempest stripped us bare
What matter, since they bore US up to Par
adise the Fair?
We who were lonely once and found the ST.
lence very sore,
Companioned round by our beloved are
lonely nevernore;
The puzzles all are now explained. and the
griefs which grieved us there
Are proved to be the Lords sure path to
Paradise the Fair.

the public road. He had been beaten to
death with club or some other heavy
weapon.
