AN OLD woMAN's RosARx.

AN OLD WoMAN'S ROSARN-
l bless myself, and l Kiss the cross,
And the holy Creed l tell;
And the Paters and AYES trip off my
tongue,
Fec it's me that knows them wel2.
For it's many day these same, old
beads
l told in the same old way
i got them my First Communion
And that's sixty years this May.
Twas the Joyful Mysteries than
liked,
(And said them toyfully),
When our Lord was only a Child
Himself
At His Blessed Mothers knee.
Ochone! but it's many and many
year,
I've turned from the joyful deeds;
And cry on the Sorrowful Mysteries
With tears as big as my beads.
For my beautiful boy with the fever
went
And himself" next morning died.
Do you wonder l think of the Myste-
ries
That end with the Crucined?
For it's then as I'm telling each bless
ed bead,
A-kneeling beside my bed,
We two women, Gods Mother and
Have many talk of our dead.
And that's why I'm liking the beads
that tell
Her plans and her darling Sons;
It's plenty of time I'll be having in
heaven
To think of the Glorious ones.
-(Rev.) H. F. Hunt.
