Of shining wings and robes of white. And things all strange to mortal sight But In the afterward of years It Is a more familiar place; A home unhurt by sighs or tears, .Where waiteth many a well-known face. With passing months it comes more near. It grows more real day by day; Not strange or cold, but very dear The glad home land not far away. Where none are sick or poor or lone. The place wbere we shall find our own. ( And as we think of all we knew Who there have mat to part no more. Our loosing hearts desire home, too, With all the strife and trouble o'er. ROBERT BROWNING.
