THOUGHTS FOR THE WEEK.

o. ask not, hope thou not, too much of
sympathy below,
Few are the hearts whence one same
touch
Bids the sweet fountains flow.
1t may be that thy brothers eye
Sees not as thine, which turns
In such deep reverence to the sky
Where the rich sunset burns.
1t may be that the breath of spring,
Born amidst viOlets love,
a rapture DER thy soul can bring
A dream, to his unknown.
The tune that speaks of other times,
a sOrrOwful delight,
The melody of distant chimes,
The sound of waves by night;
The wind that, with so many tone,
Some chord within can thrill
These may have language all thine
To live a mystery still.
Yet scOrn thou not for this the true
And steadfast love of years;
The kindly, that from childhood grew,
The faithful to thy tears!
If there be one that DER the dead
Hath in thy grief born past,
And watched through sickness by thy
bed
Call his IL kindred heart!
