The New Year stands at an open gate, And the eyes of my soul are blind ; Oh ! just fur a moment let me wait, For the old road lies behind ! Let me remember, while I can trace The steps on the wandering track ; Let me say *• Farewell 1” for a moment’s space. I shall never, never go back. ft Let me look forward and humbly pray, Ere the gate shall be closed behind ’K How can I tell on the unknown way What sorrow or joy I shall find ? There’s the New Year’s chime ! Be glad and bold ; There is light on the other side. Go through, remember Thé Promise old ; Go through, for the portal is wide. — The Independent. EDITORIAL NOTES.
