Dark clouds may cast a gloomy shade, The sun may cease to mine; The summer’s beauties sll may fade, Aud leave no summer's sign. The furious storm may rise and spread, And bellow loud and long, The manly heart iis rage may dread, Theobetnul cease the song. Still tempests never lust so long That hope yields to despnir, A murmur may escape the tongue— But hope—sweet hope—is there. Hearts may indeed be sore oppressed With painful fears and grief, Yet eometbiog whispers iu the brsaat, Soon there may be relief. Saw ye not yesterday a lad With soirow in his ayes ? His brow was dark, hia heart was sad, Aud uotbiog gave him j.iy. Fortune with bitter taunts swept by And pierced bia fine joung heart; He sigh'd and wept, and wished to die, So painful was the smart. But searealy had the wish gained birth, Thau hope waa at his side; His face put on a mark of mirth, And thus iu hope ha eiicd : 'Oh, what though atorma asaail to-day, Aud all my joys destroy 1 To-uiorrow those will pass away Aud suuahiue bring back joy "For fortune never looks so sad, Or breaths ao eold a breath, But Hope soon comes to make me glad, And cheer me on till death. “Then why should I iudulgt in grief, My heart to sorrow give '( With passing time there eomes relief; 1 hope, then, while I live.” SATURDAY EVEHIHG BEY* A.
