(By EDGAR A. GUEST)
We call them ours. There, sejems no better words
Our friends, our wives, our little children small,
,And yet we know God rules and owns them all :
They are but ours until His voice is heard.
Once on a time we had a lovely child,
! ...We called her ours. We knew no other phrase.
. Possessing her made radiant all our days,
i"Our lives were bright with beauty when she smiled.

And left us but her. memory1 and a name.
These things are ours. Silver and gold and land,
Jewels and baubles which the hands may clutch.
But the glad spirits which we love so much
Are always God's, awaiting His command.
