THE STAR OF HOPE.

From out of a convent window once :,
In the evening twilight dim.
A little maid gazed afar
Through the trees so tall and grim.
The rising moon shed silvery rays
And by. its own bright light,
Casting radiance over sill
Eluded the thoughts of night
The girls watchful eyes saw distant church
And the gilded cross on high,
And wandered thence to the bright blue DOME
Of the starry studded sky.
It seemed the brightest star of all.
Atthe foot of the cross did cling,
As if it was finding rest there
It's brightest CLEANS did fling.
The little maid seemed to hear voice
And these were the words it spoke:
"The cross has in heaven we viii safely reach
BY the light of the star of hope
