The evening times. [volume] (Grand Forks, N.D.) 1906-1914, 1913-08-08

Poem,
The master let his fingers fall;
they found q quiet minor strain :,
OF wailing woods. and weeping rain
And darkness dropping over all.
I could not weep; instead. I smiled:
Although the music made the moan
OF desolation all alone
Upon her windy mountain wild.
He touched the ivory keys again
Clear major tones. 4 swift wind
blew ~
Above the wide meadows fresh
with dew,
And over many a fower-lined lane.
! could not laugh. the quick tears
SO urgently the haunting voice
OF happiness babe me rejoice
So whelming was her gentle spell.
] thought how Gods eternal care
Has cunningly devised our souls
That we may laugh when sorrows
Fall ruthless on our every PRAYER.
And how again, when joy at last
Turns back to us to kiss our cheek.
He tempers joy; He makes us meek
With tears-and thus our faith holds
fast.
