IIS INNOCENCE.
BY WILLIAM B. WARD.
Dwelt mp soul in dreaming days i
In a palace dim rich sequested and wide,
There down ways
Moved an angel by her side.
Jloly was her face and sweet,
And her lips breathed forth perfume.
And unheard her veiled feet
Glided thro’ the scented gloom.
i
Where all things were wondrous fair, ]
*£tt 'Zt&tSXS!"
Over tessellated floors; rt
And a mighty end harmony along,
Ever rose poured I
In a rapturous melody
Sweeter than the sweetest song.
When at eve the sunset turned
All the Western skies to flame
Then the rooms in glory burned,
Ever beautiful aud same.
Said the angel, “Soul, thou must
Guard the doors ere darkness falls,
With the bars of prayer and trust.
’Gainst the foe without thy walls-’’
And my soul her answer made.
Smilling, “Have I need to fear?
Is there aught to make afraid, near?” .
O, my angel, with the
«*
Thus one eve the palace lay
Which Dreaming diviliest in the dying flood day of'gold,
Wrapped the earth in, fold on fold.
Then my in'doubtful, soul thought not of prayers,
Longed But earth, till wordly mood,
for unawares,
Dropped the where she stood.
Fell upon my soul a fear
As the frost falls on the flowers ;
And the angel whispered near,
“Lo, tlia foe Blive gained thy towers.”
Tears were in the angel’s eyes
As she wingled her flight in pain
With a cry to Paradise—
Will she ever come again?
Who call tell ? all, woe’s the day,
For my soul knew not the sin
Till the angel fled away
Ami a demon entered in.
