Extracts.
"BABES ALWAYS." BY MARION HARLAND.. "The lato-in my lone chamber,
Morne through the echoing ball, I hear the wind's hoares sobbing, The raindrops' plaabing fall;" And the street lamp on the ceiling. Throw many a weird-like form Ties shadows dumping wildly
To the music of the stur."
Called I my vigil lovely!
The door is still and funt:
O'er threshold and o'er carsieli
No mortal foot bas passed ;-
No rate of white rutsat
Dr were breath stica the air; Yet I speak aloud my greeting
"My darling! are you there i Not the three who by me Yaeeling, Said Our Father" hours ago: Whose seeks now deat their pillows-
Like roses upon Bouw;
They dream not of the ginveguri
And of the billooks twain,
Snow-heaped to aight-Lerd, help me!
And dripping with the min
Trove years 1 mazily stripling
Our boy by this and grown!
Is it four years or twenty,
Siuco kissed the eyelids down
Of her whose baby sweetness
Was a inter gift from God,
And straightened in the cuffier, Wee fest that narer trać ?
These are not strangers" glawɔcs
-Tant eagerly sack mite;
I know the loving etraining
Of the arms that round me twine;
Thou hast kapt them bates, O Father!
Who, now aid heaven's hovers,
Learning the speccù of augrla,
Forget this liome of ours.
Or her who braved death's anguish
To win them to her breast,
If they ld into the wussaine
Fren birda from narrow pest-
They come to me when longing
And pain are at their height,
Ta tell me of the safety,
The love and the delight.
Of that eternal dwelling.
(With our name upon the door!)
The ring of baby vcices
Shell gindden evermor
Till 'neath the tender southing,
I 3ft my heart and smile,
And gather faith and courage
To bifo my "little while."
