THE OLD MAN'S DREAM.

O for one hour of youthful joy

Give back my twentieth spring! I'd rather laugh a bright-haired boy,

That reign a gray-haired king,

Off with the wrinklad spoils of age ;

Away with learning's orown ; Tear out life's wisdom-written page, And cast its trophies down. :

Ona moment let my life-Blood stream

From boyhood's fount to fado, Give me dhe giddy, reeling dream.

Of life, and love, and fame.

My listening angel heard the prayer,

And salmly smileg said: I. Ibut touched the silvered hair, Thy busty wish had sped,

But is there nothing in the track, To bid thee fondly stay, While the swift seasons burry back,

To find the wished-for day i" Ab, trusat soul of roman kind,'

Without thee what were life? One blips I cannot leave behind-

I'll take my precious wife. The angel took a espphire pen," And wrote in rainbow hue, **The man would be a boy again,

And be a husband too.

"And in there nothing yet unsaid,
