OF INTEREST IN THE
SOCIAL REALM
THE LOST CHORD
Seated one day at the organ,
I was weary and ill at ease,
And my fingers wandered idly
Over the noisy keys.
I do not know what I was playing,
Or what I was dreaming then,
But I struck one chord of musie,
Like the sound of a great Amen.
It flooded the crimson twilight,
Like the close of an angel’s psalm,
And it lay on my fevered spirit,
With a touch of infinite calm.
It quieted pain and sorrow,
Like love overcoming strife,
It seemed the harmonious echo
From our discordant life.
It linked all perplexed meanings
Into one perfect peace,
And trembled away into silence,
As if it were loath to cease.
I have sought, but I seek it vainly,
That one lost chord divine,
That came from the soul of the organ,
And entered into mine.
It may be that Death’s bright angel
Will speak in that chord again;
It may be that only in heaven
I shall hear that grand Amen.
—Adelaide Anne Proctor.
RING AROUND
Mary had a little ring, ’twas given her
by Joe,
And everywhere that Mary went
that ring was sure to go.
She took the ring with her one day
when she went out to tea,
Where she might show it to the
girls who numbered 23.
And when the girls all saw the ring
they made a great ado,
And all exclaimed in chorus: “Has
it at last got ’round to YOU?”
—Exchange.
