UNFINISHED MUSIC.
.at alone at the nrenn-

| sat alone at the organ.
At the close of troubled day.
When the sunsets crimson emberS
ON the western altar lay;
| was weary of vain endeavor.
My heart was i'll AT east;
And l sought to soothe my sadness
With the voice of the sweet-tone,
keys
My hands were weak and tremb-
ling.
My fingers all unSkilled
To render the grand old anthem
With which my soul was filled:
Through the long days cares and wor-
ries
had dreamed of that glorious strain.
And | longed to hear the organ
Repeat it to me again.
1t fell from my untaught fingers
DiScordant and incomplete:
I knew not how TO express ii
vi ~ lAAshC ADt hlNNOlh SMft-N.
So | toiled with patient labor
Till the last bright CLEANS We're gene
And the evenings purple shadows
Were gathered. one by one.
Then a Master stood beside me
And touched the noisy keys.
And 10. the discord vanished
And melted in perfect peace
heard the grand organ pealing
My tune that | could rot play.
The strains of the glorious anthem
That had filled my soul all day.
Down through the dim cathedral
The tide of music swept.
And through the shadowy arches
The lingering echoes crept.
And 1 stood in the purple twilight
And heard my tune again.
Not my feeble, untaught rendering.
But the Masters perfect strain.
SO l think perchance the Master
At the close of life's weary day
Win take from our trembling fingers
The tune we can not play:
He will hear through the jarring dis
cord.
The strain, although half-expressed.
He will blend it in perfect music.
And add to it all the rest.
