The Child in the Garden.

When to the garden of untroubled thought
! came of late and saw the open door,
And wished again to enter, and explore
The sweet, wild ways with stainless bloom
inwrought,
And bowers of innocence with beauty
fraught,

dear,-
He held his hands to me, and softly smiled
With eyes that knew no shade OF sin or
fear:
