their fate is the same. Alone unChange-
able, he secs them pass away, and each
time that a loved being disappears he
suffers and weeps.
How many times did he suffer and
weep during ten human centuries, which
seemed to him rs hardly So many days:
And his martyrdom was of every hour.
Renewal did not fill up the CULTS of the
past.
Across the thrOng of faces that he had
met in the abolished years tw" NOM

he had met on that first evening. aud
who now, doubtless, had long been dead.
And 1t was the women who rrSvmhlcd
Marie that he preferred above the others.
Thus, amid noise and Cummy;,,n,
Cyriam existed for century after cen
fury. Then, one day, weary of every
thing, envying mankind, whose incNlta-

advanced by self killing, he drew apart
from the abodeS of civilized men, walk
ing for long time in the solitude of
the fields.
At twilight, as on the evening of long
ago, he sat him down at the foot of n
hill, in n corner Of II deserted road.
Suddenly he saw poor, barefoot
child coming toward him, leading n
rich flock through the deepening gloom.
With painting breath he watched her us
she drew nigh, and he murmured
ooh, earth Oh, earth aCcursed Yet
will pardon thee if this poor child be
by a miracle the child of long ago, the
first one met, whose momury-why,
know not-dwells ever in my dream.
For thee have 1 suffered, oh, earth! l

them. Have mercy upon them But the
child comes near. Who art thou, little
one?"
"A poor, kinless child, who have over
been very unhappy. And you, oh,
prince of heaven, beautiful angel-for

Cyriam started. Behind him, in very
truth, he felt the quivering of his wings
divine. God, because he was penitont,
recalled him TO the light Yet he spake
again:
