LIGHT .

WHEN o'er the seething chaos of this world Hung the dark curtain of the awful night , Across the brooding waters of the deep , God said , "Let there be light . "

Light , that the flowers may bloom , the green grass spring ; Sunshine to gild the dew . lit path min trod ; Light to reflect in earth , and sky and sea , The glory of our God .

Light thafc tho glory of the Lord be seen , In earth ' s glad seasons as thoy como and pass , In tides that ebb and flow , in gem-lit sky , And fciny blade of grass .

There is no pride in lichfc , ifc freely shines On stately castle , peeps through cottage door , Creepi 'mid lone dnngeon bars , and glides across The marble palace floor :

Shines grandlv on the mountain's highest top , Kisses the white . fringed daisy at its feet , Smiles o'er the valleys , steals across the waste Where foaming waters meet .

Deep in the cold heart of the silet t earth The old primeval forests darkly rest , In some deep mine , a Queen's bright jewels once Dark hid their rainbow crest .

In flashing diamond of a monarch ' s crown , In cottage fire thafc gives a ruddy glow , Shine rays of light from out fche golden sun , Of summers long ago .

Light , 'tis a grand and blessed thing to see , Ifc circles ronnd our paths , it decks the skies : After long night , how sweet fche blushing morn Dawns on our weary eyes !

Have * ve amid life's heaving , restless deep , Heard o ' er the darkness of a faithless night , Far o ' er the chaos of desnair nnd doubt , God said , "Let there be light ? "

Oh , havo we seen its heaven-born radiance flood The darkened path of life we mournful trod , Seen in the light that circled round our path The glory of our God ?

No one that stands alone—our influence falls On some dark threshold with a cheering light ; Or else it shadows and enshrouds some life With pestilential blight .

No one so lonely bufc has links thafc bind Its light or darkness with some other one ; This great wide world itself is bound with links Reaching from earth to sun .

Do we , like trees and flowers and t > ky and sea , Reflect the glory of onr God , and throw Oue radiant gleam of light ; to cheer and bless The darkness here below ? —HOLIIS FREEMAN , in the Freemasons' Repository .
