thine — Yeers stesl away beneatl: thy measured read ; No hour of rest awaits thee, Father Time, Forced on the future as thy past has fled.

}

The sunny morn precedes nights coming gloom, Shrouding in dull obscurity thy way,— So mortals wake to slumber in the tomb, And proud old cities crumble to decay.

Yes, thou art victor over all below The circling sweep of Empyrean light ; Sun, moon, and stars, dark prophecy of woe, But wait thy touch, to sink to endless night,

Yet from this mingled wieck, shall God restore To greater beauty, all His work of power ; And, through Eternity, shall Time, no more A future know, from that decisive hour.
