One suitry summers eve. I was weary
and Ill at ease.
80 I lay me down on a cool messy rill,
Meath the shade of the Ieafy trees;
The sun had sank to rest. an even
Nature seemed tired and still:
Altar Ger the west the clouds respondent
with light.
Reflected Ger natures landscape a ra-
And thoughts filled my soul in reptuous
delight
OF a more perfect vision, than e'er pic
tured below;
Where the spirit lives on. and on, and on.
A little cloud stoops to bear on its feecy
crest.
Altar from my soul INTO u~nfathomed
The thought. that in captivity near could
rest
In chains which bound: so it threw apace
For a few moments TO dwell in immortal
sight,
To fatnom the mystery OF Eternity where
Day is perpetual, and there is no night;
But bewildered Git cried) aloud in des-
pair.
Eternity. what art thou, and whittier
how long.
Thou goest on, and on, and on?'
Still on twas born through portals
bright,
Blu mystery shrou6ed it's mortal sight.
Above, below, around, about, a radiant
light:
Here I cannot fathom it, though with
all my might
I tear away this vale. I can see no more
What its mystery holds; still If / live
Alright,
And leave to God the mystery as before,
In death to awake in Eternal hight.
I shall know, for the morning will DAWN
How Eternity lives, and goes on, and on.
So the thought comes back to my soul
content,
"Ah! Git says) twas not intended for
mortal eyes
To solve the mysteries for immortality
ment;
This 1 know, Eternity dwells far beyond
the skies;
But, if it has beginning or ending or
how long.
And from whence it cometh of goeth on
Will be known when we change mortality
for immortality's form,
The old life dead. a new life born,
Where Eternity lives, and goes on, and
on, and on"
