In many way* my effort*. No dark strife

Aeroo* the Calm Mao scop* of heaven. And though
Pride often chafcd at plain commercial lift
It waa bat transient, for ambitioaa U >po
Kept ovarln my view Fame's gilded dome,
Upon hose Uighe.it pinnacle I chose my niclie,
For Vain conceit had whispered in m.v ear
That I had Qeoiua to encnarm the world,
Aad 1 looked ftrward to the load applause
Of Nation* aa a simple t.dngof time,
Of Death I thought bat as a frignt for thoee
W uo have no destiny bat dying. Mine
Would come in age, bat as a pallid seal
To Honor gained, and Lift’* long labor* done.
Yet 1 had tbit the breath of Israel’* wing,
When (Vora my yoathfal head he took icy father’*
hand
And from

•Tombed
Still atauda though veiling in the folds of time.
Of heaven I thought bat as a distant home,
A piece of aweete*t rest that I would gain,
When weary of the burden of the world,
Thus gay of thought aad bright of Hope I moved
Amid the flower* or my way,
At once,
With scarce a rustic in the rose leaves came,
A shad’wy form, and standing silently
B <f >re my pothway breathed a whispered sigh
As if it loathed it* office to perioriu;
Tneii laid Consumption's ghastly bsuuer on my brea**,
It* pallid folds crossed with fetal red.
The *ky
Grew dark, the rose leaves withered, as tha form
Withdrew still silently; while 1 alone
Upon the roadside kneeled to pray for tight
Tie stunned surprise of sadden shattered h<

Ob, my Lord!
“An’ what he done? Diu holetbini

The (kith of self appointed destiny
Still turned my eyes toward tin Temple
Acru** it* gilded dome a spotless cloud
ilud drifted, hiding it from view, but to 1
Tha eland, unfolding snowy depths, disclosed
T n glories of that ‘• House not made m-ith hands,”
Aad, beading it* form so full of tenderness,
1 could discern tin loved one* “ gone before."
And over ell 1 reuo idled tin Form,
Whose brow endured G ibbatha’s shameful crown,
Whose woe distilled itself in trickling blood
By Cedron’s murmuring wave,
As tenderly
As ever mother touched her babe. Ho bore
Within His arms a little a gle form,
With golden hair and blue expressive eyes.
< I no dimpled hand lay on his willing cheek,
While He bent dowu to meet the caress,
The ot er, with that well rem-mbered look,
Bin k'u*cJ t and threw the kiss to me.
Then down
I bowed my face and longed to know mine eud.

And slid t'were sweet beyond compare to wait
