HOLY SYMBOLS j (> pity l>e upon the one Who ne’er hath cast enraptured • gaze I poll the red < let olier -sun, i That .-inks behind the autumn haze; Ami pours its crimson glow upon The streams that meet its farewell rays. \\ ho ne'er hath heard the cadence sweet Os meadow brook, or mountain stream That trickles glistening at his feet;' Or ne'er hath had his thoughts

to seem In tune with nature, and retreat To sylvan glade to rest ami dream. Who ne'er hath heard the night; birds sing, Or ne’er hath felt the majesty; When night at last has spread its wing Os darkness over land and sea, I With vigil set on earthly things B.v stars that shine so distantly, i (lod’s goodness dawns upon the one i With eye to see and ear to hear; । It hints His will on earth is done— It whispers, “He is ever near.” Through earthly symbols understood We rise above the clouds of fear, j Thus angel, voices still are heard. When thought is lifted to percieve Beauties, untold b.v spoken word, Awaiting all who choose to leave Tlie harsher things of earth awhile, These angel whisperings to receive. F. S. L.
