PEAK TRAM ENGINE BIDS ADIEU!

I pasa! A long, subdued farewell

To you, my loyal friends!

I leave the future, yours, to tell

Of how my lost power ends.

The swish,-and pause,—and muffled, roar, The sounds ye knew so well of yore, Bush on in steamy breath before. The glow my old tale lenda

Ye knew me long! The mists have towed

To eight and thirty years,

Bince first my heart-beata echoed_loud," And ye were drawn from street and crowd, From club and mart and banquet proud,

From all your hopes and fears——

To leave your fate a little space

Within my care, and rest;

I smile, recalling many a face Whose owner passed me in life's zace, Working, perhaps, at rougher pace

Than I with steady zest.

I came, full strange to Orient ways,

A marvel was I then,~~! But now I sink into the haze

Of old and outworn yesterdays,———

As rushlight by a fiery blaze

Seems now my power to men..

Then just in time my rest I take, My strength to lie asleeping,

My Peak is reached, I've scorned to break"

bow, nor wish your trust to shake Given to strangers' keeping !
