ENCLI621 POETICAL 001TEllATr:nE,
After a day of clood and wind and rain
Sometimes the setting sun breaks out
again,
ma, touching all the darksome woods with
light,
Smiles on the fields, until they laugh and
sing,
Then like a ruby from the horizon's ring
Drops down into the night.
What see I now? The night is fair,
The storm of grief, the clouds of oars,
The wind, the rain, have pase'd away ;
The lamps are lit, the fires burn bright,
The house is full of life and light ;
It is the Golden Wedding day.
The guests oome thronging in once more,
Quick footsteps sound along the floor,
The trooping children crowd the stair,
And in and out and everywhere
Flashes along the corridor,
The sunshine of their golden hair.
On the round table in the hall
Another arfadne's Crown
Out of the sky hath fallen down ;
More than one Monarch of the Moon
Ie drumming with his silver spoon ;
The light of love shines over all.
O fortunate, 0 happy day 1
The people Bing, the people say,
The ancient bridegroom and bhe bride,
Smiling contented and serene,
Upon the blithe, bewildering Beene,
Behold, well pleae'd, on every side
Their forms and features multiplied,
As the reflection of a light
Between two burnish'd mirrors gleams,
Or lamps upon a bridge at night
Stretch on and on before the Bight,
Till the long vista endless seems.

A cloud lay cradled near the setting sun ;
A gleam of crimson tinged its braided
snow ;
Long had I watched the glory moving on
O'er the still radiance of the lake below.
Tranquil its spirit seemed, and floated
slow, -
Even in its very motion there was rest ;
While every breath of eve that chanced to
blow
Wafted the traveller to the beauteous
west :-
Emblem, methought, of the departed
soul,
To whose white robe a gleam of, bliss is
given :
And, by the breath of mercy made to roll
Right onward to the golden gates of Heat.

same flowers come up again every spring
that we used to gather with onr tiny fin-
gers as we sat lisping to ourselves on the
grass -the same hips and haws on the
autumn hedgerows -the same red.breasts
that we used to call "God's birds," be-

crops. What novelty ie worth that sweet

(b) Gorgeoue were the lilies of France,
and for centuries they had the privilege
