A Photo raphy "Secure the shadow ere the substance fade," A motto trite but well and aptly said ; And oft recurring, aswith anxious eye, We gaze on forms which bloom, alas ! to die. Be wise in. time ; improve the present hour ; Pluck while we may the rose of beauty's bower, And from its bloom, an evanescent joy— Extract a balm, a sweetness to destroy The poison minglings of the cup of life, And soothe the anguish of its parting strife.
