Thine is a ministry that never rests, Even while the living slumber. Fora time The meddler, man, hath Jeft the elements In peace ; the ploughman breaks the clouds no more ; The miner labors not, with steel and fire, ‘Lo rend the roek ; and be that hews the stone And he that fells the forest ; be that guides The loaded wain, and the poor animal That drags it, have forgotten, for a while, ‘Their toils, and share the quiet of the earth. Thou pausest not in thine allotted task, Oh darkling Liver! through the night I hear Thy wavelets rippling on the pebbly beach , I hear thy current stir the rustiing sedge That skirts my bed ; thou intermittest not ‘Thine everlasting journey, drawing on A silvery tra:n from many a mountain brook And woodiand spring. ‘The dweller by thy side, Who moored his little boat apon thy beach Though all the waters that upbore it then liave slid away o'er night, shall find, at morn, Tay channel filled with waters freshly drawn From distant cliffs, and hollows where the rill Comes up amid the water flags. All night Thou givest moisture to the thirsty routs Of the lithe willow and o’erhanging plane, And cherishest the herbage on thy bank, Speckled with little Mowers : and sendest up Perpetually the vapors from thy face, To steep the hills with dew, or darken beaven With marehing clouds that trail the abundant showers. Oh River, darkling River! what a voice Is that thou utterest while all else is still! The ancient yoice that, centuries ago, Sounded between thy hills wlile Rome was yet A weedy solitude by Tibers stream ! liow many , at this hour, along thy course, Slumber to thine eternal murwurings, That mingle with the utteranee of their dreams! At dead of night the eluld awakes and hears foy soft, familiar dushings, and is svothed, And sieeps again. An airy multitude Of little echoes, all unheard by day, Faintly repeat, till morning, aiter thee, The stury of thine endiess goings forth. Yel there are those who lie beside thy bed, For wioni theu once didst rear the bowers that sereen Thy isargia, and didst water the green ficids, Sud now there is no night so still that they nm hore thy lapse ; their slum‘vers, were thy voice vs os 3 Loudos. thames “22/8. it could never break. ; Solet no more For them the eal op. ‘or their eyes Opens upon thy banz, DOr, - 9s. otis Gittter the crimson pictures te c, Upon thy bosom, when the sun goos down. Their memories are abroad—the memories Of thuse who last were gathered to the earth— Lingering within the homes ia which they sat, Hovering about the paths in which they trod, Hauntins them like a presence. Even now ‘They visit many a dreamer in the forms They walked in, ere, at last, they wore the shroud ; And eyes there are that will not close to dream, For weeping and for thinking of the grave, The new made grave, and the pale one within. Thess memories and these sorrows al} shalt fade And pass away, and fresher memories And newer sorrows come and dwell a whils Beside thy border, and, in tern, depart. On glide thy waters till at last they flow Beneath the windows of the populous town, And all night long give back the gleam of lamps, And glimmer with the trains of light that stream From halls where dancers whirl. A dimmer ray Touches thy surface from the silent room In which they tend the sick, or gather round The dving ; and a slender, steady beam Comes from the little chamber in the roof Where, with a feverous crimson on her cheek, The solitary damsel, dying too, : Plies the quick needle till the stars grow pale. There, close beside the haants of revel, stand The blank, unlighted windows, where the poor, In darkness and in hunger, wake till morn. There, drowsily. on the half conscious ear Of the dull watchman, pacing on the wharf, Falls the soft ripple of thy waves that strike On the moored bark ; bat guiltier listeners Are near, the prowlers of the night, who steal From shadowy nook to shadowy nook, and start If other sounds than thine are in the air. Qh, glide away from those abodes that bring Pollution to thy channel, and make foul Thy onee clear current. Sammon thy quick waves And dimpling eddies ; linger not, but has e, With all thy waters, haste thee to the deep, There to be tossed by shifting winds, and rucked Ly that mysterious force which lives wichin ‘The sea’s immensity, and wields the weight Of its abysses, swaying to and fre The billuwy mass, until the stain, at lengih, Shall wholly pass away, and thou regain The erystal brightness of thy mountain springs. — Harper's Month’y.

SS eee ‘When searce the boldest friend would dare a friend’s regret to own; I’ve thought with courage, sullen pride, cool, lofty, calm diedain, To ease their venom at my heart, their madness in my brain. Yet still one lovely isle is left, amid life's boisterous surge, To which each scattered rag of hope and feeling must converge; The bleak, bare desert of my heart has still one fruitful tree Which bears aloft, in fadeless bloom, undying love to thee. Dark was the fate, my darling babe, that hovered o’er thy birth, And wild the storm that ushered in thy pilgrimage on earth; Baptised in tears thou wert, my love, and lulled with broken sighs, — God grant that upon morn so dark a brightet noon may rise. They say that strange bright tears would start and tremble down thy cheek > And clouds of seeming sorrow shade thy brow ere thou could’st speak, As if through nature’s hidden, deep, mysterious, awful linc, The pangs that crush thy father’s breast bad touched a chord in thine. Ob ! bow mp spirit yearns to see that sweet young face once more, For memory vainly strives to trace the semblance that it wore; It telle of arched and dimpliag lips, blue eyes and lofty brow, While busy fancy darkly strives to paint those features now. But oft when sileut night descends with shadows and with dew, And pleasant memories of the past in dreams arise to view, Then comes the meek angelic face to brighten my despair, And I feel thy breath upon my cheek, thy hand amonget my hair. Come thus my guardian angel, come, on every lonely night, And brighten up wy sorrow with thine image mild and bright, For oh ! my heart is heavy, and my hopes are sinking low, And 1 feel so Jone without thee, dear, whichever way I go. ’ J.
