... -- 10 actru. THE PEASANT'S PRIDE. SHE left her father's busy home- A lass of eighteen years- She heard no more her sisters' laugh, Or her brothers' blithsome cheers. Beneath the household holly trees, No more at noon she listens To the hum of her mother's honey-bees Where the hire in the sunshine glistens. Her cot is on a dreary moor, Where sound of human -life For hours at time will never ...

... iortru. GOOD TEMPEr. S Y C It H A L ES S IW A I N . T'HEUE's not a cheaper thing on earth, Nor yet one half so dear; 'Tis worth more than distinguish'd birth, Or thousands gain'd a-year. It lends the day a new delight; 'Tis virtue's firmest shield; And adds more beauty to the night Than all the stars may yield. It maketh poverty content; To sorrow whispers peace; It is a gift from Heaven sent ...

Poetry

... 'Petrg. M EMIORY. WnrN we recall the happy scenes Of love's young days we knew, To which remembrance fondly leans, Unconscious how they flew; And those we prized, perchance too well, All cold, or false we see, 'Tis only nem'ry that can tell How changed this world can be. When hearts for which we lived alone We can no more believe, And passion's most exciting tone Is breathed but to deceive; ...

Poetry

... Ctlrp. LOOK UP. LooK up! look up! can ye not see Some promise of a better time- The dawning of a day to be, Free from the stains of wrong and crime? Soon shall the people shout aloud, From out the depths of their despair, And hope, within her silver cloud, Shall answer then their earnest prayer. Look up! look up! from out the sky, See the pale angel faces lean; All heaven seems full of melody, ...

Tile sounds increased, and never ceased, Till they had spoiled my napping. I rose to see what all ioght be That ...

... -- vortrg. TH-1SKY.LARK 'S SONG. IT comes down from the clouds to me, On this sweet day of Spring; Methinks it is a melody That angel-lips might sing. Thou soaring minstrel! winged bard! Whose path is the free air, Whose song makes sunshine seem more bright, And this fair world more fair! I ask not what the strain may be, Thus chanted at Heaven's gate _ A hymn of praise, a lay of joy, Or ...
