CURRENT VERSE.
The Prayer-An Eastern Fable.

Jibrail, the Lord OF Angels, on a night
Clad in gold plumsge of a Homa-bird-
Safe in the Toha-tree, which, tall and white,
Spreadeth in Paradise; and there he heard
The prayers Of men pass unite Allah's Throne,
MyriatLs and myriads, like the winds long moan.
And as the winds wall seems unmarked TO go
Without an answering voice bidding it cease
Save if the billows clanor to its woe,
Save il find pity in the signing trees:
So, all unheeded, through the spangled skies
That crying OF Earth's children seemed to rise.
''perchance they pray not well. perchance they
For things which plague by wishing" Jibrail
said:
"wide is the ear Of Allah; night and day
All words and thoughts do enter there; the Dead
Lie in His Love; the Living cannot die
Without the mercy OF my Lord being by"
"why note l no man answered. Suddenly
Athwart that wind of wsiling drew a word
Softer than any music that might be,
Sweeter than lovers voice heard,
Yet holding thunder's majesty. Heaven spake.
Saying, Yea, dearest. for thy strong loves
saker'
Then Jibrail: .'who is this that wins tonight
Such yea from Allah TO single pleag
I will pass down along the lanes of light
The happy holy one OF men to see
For Angels taste not any Joy in Heaven
So glorious as the grace of the Forgiven.
Thus the Archangel weHded, golden-winged;
And, tracing back the pathway OF that prayer,
Lit down in midst OF Indian city, ringed
With red walls; and a river broad and fair,
Threaded its palaces. Bur not from those
The cry which Heaven had deigned to answer
rose.
Forth from a little suburb hut it came
Where, on her face before idol, kneeed
girl OF the bazaars, whose wage Of shame
Spent upon cakes and fruit, did feasting yield
To a grey. famished mother and frail child.
For Joy OF that good food now glad and wild;
Yet she-her forehead on the dust-within
With dry mouth murmured TO the block of
brass:
80, Nameless God let not my daily SIN
Preyent that to thy daily grace | pass,
Keep these love, and them 10 Swarga take,
And me, when all Is done, for Loves dear sake,'
Then unused the Archangel, "Haye I. so, mistook
Mine earthly flight? Can such she this
Have place before the righteous? Such eyes look
Straight in the face OF Heaven, and reach its
bliss?
Nautch-Girl! Idolatressi-and dare TO die
BY the close kiss of God-Death's ecstasy?'
But, while Jibrail's radiance in that room
Unseen still fingered, fell the Voice again
In low majestic music through the gloom.
Uttering: "Ayi bring her into peace from paint
Hers was the purest PRAYER of all we're saidi''

STOPPING so much
Was bad for the spine;
And wasn't it warmish in Pennarby mine?
Twas like two worlds that met that day

And the grimy lads from the reeking shaft
Nudged each other and grinned and ehafed
'.Got 'em all ont!'

So ran the banter at Pennarby mine.
And Carnbrae Bob, the Pennarby wit,
Told him the facts about the pit;
How they bored the shaft till the birthstone smell
Warned them off from the tapping-well,
He wouldn't say what.
But they took it as sign
To dig no deeper in Pennarby mine.
Then leaning and peering In,
lie was pointing out what he said was tin
In the ten-foot lode-a crashl jsrl
A grasping hand and splintered bar.
Gone in his strength,
With the lips that laughed
Oh the pale faces round Pennarhy shaft!
Far down on narrow ledge,
They saw him cling to the crumbling edge.
"Wait for the bucket H. mani STAY!
That rope amt safel It's worn awayi
He's taxing his chance,
Slack out the line!

''He's got him. He has him. Pull with will.

If I should force the sentries of her lips
What should it profit 10 shock her soul
Or young Faith in pitiful eclipse,
Or watch her don Assessments leaden stolei
II should bid her tell me ali her love
Bare ali the rosy secret of her heart,
What gain to see her spoil herself thereof:
For her what gain, TO see her love depart2
Her lovely mystery is her loveliness
And her sweet reticence her seal OF price;
For what she loyeth darly that she is
Priestess, commitment, and sacrifice.
In her own mold she fashions Love, and he
Scarce knows himself, vested so tenderly.

The Goblin Laugh.

When l behold how men and women grind
And grovel for some place of ponip or power,
To shine and circle thro' crurnbling hour,
Forgetting the large mansions OF the mind,
That are the rest and shelter OF mankind;
And when | see them come with wearied brain,
Pallid and powerless to enjoy their gains
l seem to hear goblin laugh unwind.
And then a memory sends upon its billow
Thoughts of a singer wise enough TO play,
Who took life lightsome holiday;
Oft have | seen him make his arm pillow
Drink from his hand. and with pipe Of willow,
Blow wild music down woodland way

No precious piaything wrought with curious art,
For all to coYet and for one TO hold.
ask not If the magnet of desire
Will draw at last thy spirit near to mine;
Not this my dream, but soaring higher,
To merge at last my spirits life in thins-
I ask no boon, no guerdon save the right
To give my love, my life, myself to thee
Bound. to thy soul with chains of golden light
Blest in my bondage, freer than the free.
I ask for freedom to obey loves call;
