Poetry.
Poetry .
THE LOVE-CHARM . Br GEEDA PAY . Eramed within the dusky doorway , Musing fair and motionless , Lulled beneath the summer glory Into blissful consciousness , —
As thou standest—not a zephyr Lifts thy soft hair's shadowy fold , But the sunlight ripples ever Like a river running gold . At thine innocent heart reclining Cooes a wood-dove mourning loivly ,
And its changeful plumage shining Varies with the sunlight slowly . Passion-flowers , all richly ivreathing , Purple shades about thee throwing , And thy sweetly measured breathing Lightly stirs thy garments flowing . To my daily labours hieing , Pause I at that garden ' s bound ; All without the dust is flying , AU within is holy ground !
Poetry.
All Avithout is care and striving , Toilsome labour ' s grinding wheel ; Gaining , losing , failing , thriving , Pausing not to think or feel . But in Eden ' s primal garden Lies that lovely cottage nest ; And , of tranquil joy the warden ,
Shines the dove upon thy breast . Broad white lily-flowers leaning , Planted by tbat gentle hand ; Take near tliee a mystic meaning , Symbols of a better land . Seek who will the noisy revel , Pleasure ' s floweror passion ' s fret ;
, Say the world be sad and evil , — Angels haunt its pathways yet ! Lust who may for earthly potage , Higher flies my soul ' s endeavour , By that vine-embowered cottage Where the wood-doves murmur ever . Say not 'tis an earth-born vision
Fills my soul , and fires mine eyes , — Trees that bear such fruit elysian Draw their nurture from the skies . I will ivait and Avork on blindly , Trusting iu the Powers above , In her nature puro and kindly , In the greatness of my love .
For I seek to ivin and wear her , Guard her life from harm and pain , Till her sister angels bear her . To her native Heaven again !
Drink, And Away.
DRINK , AND AWAY .
Bv THE REV . AV . CKOSSWELL , D . D . Up , pilgrim said rover ' . Redouble thy haste , Nor rest thee till over Life ' s wearisome waste : Ere the wild forest ranger Thy footsteps betray
To trouble and danger , O , drink , and away ! Here lurks the dark savage By night and by day , To rob and to ravage , Nor scruples to slay . He waits for the slaughter ; The blood of his prey Shall stain the still water ; Then drink , and away !
With toil though thou languish , The mandate obey : Spur on , though in anguish ; There ' s death in delaj-. No bloodhound , ivant-Avasted , Is fiercer than they ; Pass by it untasted , Or drink , and away !
Though , sore he the trial , Thy God is thy stay ; Though deep the denial , Yield not in dismay ; But , rapt in high vision , Look on to the day When fountains elysian Thy thirst shall allay .
Then shalt thou for ever Enjoy thy repose , AVhere life ' s gentle river Eternally flows ; Yea , there shalt thou rest thee Por ever and aye , AVith none to molest thee : Then drink , and away !
