The tender plant is first to fade, And first to droop and die, Quickly its beauties are diplayed, So tnon in death to lie. Like some dear planet’s lingering wake Of radiance on the sky, With beauty dyes the silver lake, Then soars to realms on high. Our love around them fondly clings, But, Oh, they cannot stay, For on the niorning’B fleeting wings They’re swiftly borne way. We-linger near the-wasting form, Fond hopes alloyed with fear, But death, like a relentless storm, Our home lias rendered drear. But we submit to God’s decree, And own him great and wise, Who called our darling home to see Ilis glory in the skies. —E. C ari - enter . Grand ffee street exhibition by tho cir cus to-day.
