Dying in Harness.
BY JOHN BOYLE O'REILLY. Only a fallen horse, stretched out there on the road, Stretched in the broken shafts, and crushed by the heavy load; Only a fallen horse, and a circle of wondering
orn ; Watching the frightened teamster goading the beast to rise.
Hold! for his toil is over, no more jabor for him;
See the poor neck outstretched and the patient eyes grow dim:
See on the friendly stones how peacefully rests his head,
Thinking, if dumb beasts think, how good it is to be dead;
After rene journey, how restful it is
© lie
With the broken shafts and the cruel load,
waiting only to die !
Watchers, he died in harness, died in the shafts and straps; Fell, and the great load killed him—oye of
the days mishaps,
One of - passing wonders marking the city road,
A toiler dying in harness, heedless of call or goad.
Passers, ie the pathway, staying your e,
J | i steps awhi Che strike has ended, and everybody is |
What isthesymbol? Only death; why should we cease to smile
| At death for a beast of burden? On through
the busy street
| That is ever and ever echoing the tread of the
hurrying feet !
What was the sign ? tireless will,
Does He who taught in parables speak in par- ables sti'! 7
The seed on the rock is wasted on heedless hearts of men
That gather and sow, and grasp aud lose, labor and sleep, and then :
Then for the prize! A crowd in the street of ever-echoing tread;
The toiler, crushed by the heavy load, is there in his harness, dead !
