he could, he shared with them the good
things Of which he was the possessor,

enjoyment from them. For by nature
he was thoroughly aItruistic. But up

Why could he not care for Helen as he

that he must 90 in and make some

took Penrhyn's quarter to have it

her service by giving her the oppor-

such tired look on her pale face. The
hardest work must be preferable to such
monotony, Penryhn reflected as he went

as an excuse that he could not think Of
doing such a thing on the eve Of his de-

for so many weeks.
But ne knew he was glad he had not

4 SOULS DESIRE

A half-grOwn soul in Karma land
Through endless cycles strove.
Unable yet to understand

And from that universe Of night.
Overwhelmed with Deaths despair.

A voice in eager prayer:
Change, @, Brahma. change mel
And Brabna's heart OF hearts divine
Was moved to give the mystic sign
That TO thrilling lark gave birth
To wing its way to waking earth
And there devote the sunlit hours
To grateful song in tangled bowers.
Where love first preyed on blushing
flowers
But danger lurked in every fold
OF natures robe in days of old.
And wien IN taIoned grasp It throbbed
a throttled voice in terror sobbed:
Change. 0. Brahma. change mel'
And in his mercy Brahma heard
And changed it from stricken bird,

But sumHser joys are all too brief.
While winter SHOWS bring biting grief,
And then in dawning fear and pain

It felt the subtle. weaving charm

Uprose from ages vast and hoary
To tell again the tragic stsry

To tender VOWS that were not true.
And then She called on Brain to bless
Once more with deaths forgetfulness.
