THE BRUSSELS POST 7 WA'r1 X LII,II ;J. 109111'Tim cont TIM POST; Tlowors of rho drop, how grand In tiny beauty, Ever floating with pride o'er IIuron's fair breast; Like cups of pure gold, luring Pian frorn his duty, And !filing his mind with a heavenly root, Earth has no flowers, in her garden so roy- al, So queenly and grand its thew of the wave, So proudly -they lie, so strong and so loyal 'Tire foam crest their birthplaco, the foam iron their grave, Whore aro ye now when your Ionto is frost laden ?

Though clouds environ round, And gladness hides her face in scorn, Pot thou the shadow from thy brow, No night but hath eta mora, Ulm Faith : Where'or thy bark is driven, The calm's disport, the tempest's mirth, Know this, God rules Ise hosts of heaven, The inhabitants of earth I Have Love : Not love alone for one, But man as man thy brother call ; And scatter, like the circling sun, Thy charities on all, Thus grave these words upon thy soul, Hope, Faith and Low ; and thou shall fold Strength when life's surges maddest roll, Light, when thou else were blfud, "SWLII:T CANADA OF OURS." Let ether nations sing the past, And ancient glories dead, Their sons their glance must backward cast, While ours shall look ahead ; No dceds of rapino stain our page, Cur path is hedged with flowers, Thy greatness comes not from war's rage, Sweet Canada of ours, Chorus— Sweet Canada, sweet Canada, sweet Crum - da, Sweet Canada, sweet Canada of ours, Sweet, sweet Canada of ours, An ocean leaves thy eastern shore, An ocean on thy west ; The breakers dash with harmless roar Against; thy rock -girt breast ; Thus angry nations vain shall chafe, And threat our peaceful bowers, Thy gallant sons shall guard thee safe, Sweet Canada of Dura. All mations girdled by thy belt, The son of empire thou, The Gaul and Saxon, Gael and Celt Weave wreathes to dock thy brow ; And thou, dear motherland, dost smile, And hope glitters on thy towers, To hear from all these words meanwhile, Sweet Canada of ours, The charm of Spring some empires boast ; In suminor light some shine ; But autumn of the world—.its host Of garnered fruit is thine ; With then shall cud the human race. With thee earth's forte and dowers, The falling sun shall gild thy fade, Sweet Canada of ours. Lot other nation's sing the past, And ancient glories dead, Their sons their glance must backward oast, While ours shall look ahead, Republics rot, and klugdorns fall, Timo other states devours, But thou shall spread Time's funeral pall, Sweet Canada of ours.
