All aroud was wealth and splendor; ». Yjet no weeper came to shed Tears of sorrow, true and tender— Such as only love can render By his solitary bed! Hireling, set,to watch, had slumbered As his dying breath he drew, For they knew his hours were numbered And they ditred not, nor were cumberd With love’s sasvings, kind and true. (Love had stood, perchance, and waited To receive the djing breath, Till the agony abated, Tiil the spirit wj>rn, belated, Fled into the arms of Deatli ?) With observance high and stately, He was borne unto his tomb; And hired mourners, all sedately— Who had laughed aloud so lately— Wore long faces &11 of gloom! While the muffled bells tolled slowly From the belfry overhead, And the “De Profundis" holy, Sung by voices melancholy, Sounded, for the silent dead! Only when his head was covered With the earth all brown and cold, Pitying eyes at last discovered One poor woman's form which hovered O’er the silent, voiceless mold. Only one he had forsaken And betrayed in her lost youth, Came to mourn—as if o’ertaken By her grief—as if to waken W4 Him to honor, love and truth. Yes, she wept, as if despairing, With a heart by anguish torn, White the Idle crowd, uncaring, Some with bitter jests unsparing, ' Mochedher! pallid and forlorn! ; ■ ■ - •——r-t— The California conference meets at " ..- on tHe second Wednesday in June, 1885, mIO a m—-Bishop Hood presiding.
