CONSCIENCE.

Man you must have heard it calling
AS you blindly stumbled, falling.
Ger the road so bitter, CALLING,
To life's goal.
You have heard it vainly pleading,
That you turn from paths misleading;
But you tottered on unheeding-
Your good soul!
You could not but feel it shrinking,
AS you btazed your way unthinking-
Prison letters harshly clinking,
Would pay toll!
Stop the pricks of conscience singing;
Heed the voice in your ear ringing;
Nurse the few good traits still clinging-
Feed your soul!
The Mentor.

IF WE UNDERSTOOD.

Could we bnt draw the curtains
That surround each others lives,
See the naked heart and spirit,
Know what spur the action gives,
Often we should find it better,
Purer than We judge we should
We should love each other better
If we only understood.
Could we judge all deeds by motive,
See the good and bad within,
Often we should love the sinner
ALL the while we loath the sin;
Could we know the power working
To o'erthrow integrity
We should Judge each others errors
With more patient charity.
Oh! We Judge each other harshly,
Knowing not life's hidden force,
Knowing not the font of action
Is less turbid at it's source,
Seeing not amid the evil
All the golden grains of good
Oh! We'd love each other better
If we only understood.

You will sing ere long

To the brief, bright day that's dying.
Don't waste in grief
A day so brief,
Your sun to its noon is rising.
IT'S my belief
There is sweet relief
In little bright surmising
In your noontime's past
And the shadows cast
