song OF Il GARDEN.

know II garden olden,
Where blossoms red aud golden,
To science unbeEolden, once flew for
squire and dame;
And passing through it lately
lsiw the lilies stately
Still blooming as seddtely
As in that far oil summer when first their
swcetnt IS came;
SO had they bloomed yearly,
The same. yer not the same.
The pansCs in Their places
Still wore the scf-same gruccs
As when their happy laccs first answered
to their name:
And puks in snowy rIiment
& Nc pcUluur ~" rt ~ payment
For all the summer day l-ut
Of sunshine and fresh brtClCs, TO spread
abroad the lame.
All. sweet were pinkS an plnses,
Yet neVermOre the same.
Year after year the roses.
Ungathered now for posieS,
Rloom on till autumn c Cscs tEclr unre-
gurdcd claim;
And there i'll stormy weather,
The sweet peas cling together,
And near the princes feather
The hollyhocks still linger, like sentinels of
flame;
Oh garden sweet and olden,
The same yet not the same.
The trees, once scuiptered quantity,
Dropped DER the lilies sanity,
Whose bells vibrating family, lost melodies
reclaim;
And from the -Ill carnations,
Long vanished aspiration g,
Rise, like forgotten blessings, unspoiled by
praise or blame;
sweet is their noardcd fragrance,
The same, yet not the same.
So, when the resurrection
shall wake, in GLAD perfection,

And flowers from earthly Edeus shall there

In dear familiar semOlunce-
