The Motherless Child.

How sad , how lonely now I feel ; They say cry not—be brave ; As warm I lay the thought brings tears—She ' s in the cold , cold grave . Yet sister says her soul's not there , But doth in heaven reign ; And if I ' m good and pray to God

"lis there will meet again . Pa' thinks she ' s oe ' r me watching , speaks Of lasting joys to come , Where parents , brothers , sisters dwell , In heaven ' s eternal home , To part no more , to live for e ' or , With angels and with God ;

"lis thus they seek to dry my tears , And ease ufilctions rod . "lis for her loss on earth I mourn ; Rejoic'd she lives above—Hence whilst I weep bright thoughts console , God took her in His love . E . BOKD .
