As 1 ruunuaged through the aUlo .
Listening to the falling rain, , y
" As it puttered on the shiugles
And against the window-pane
Peeping over chests and boxes, ,
Which with dust were thickly spread, j
Saw I in the farthest corner
What was ouce roy, trundle bed. , v

So I drew It from tbe recess, s
Where it bad remained so long;
Hearing all tbe while the music '
Of my mother's voice in soug. t: :
As she sang in sweetest ascents, ,
What I since have often heard: ;
"Hush, my dear, lio still and slumber,
Holy angels guard thy bed."

Aa 1 listened, recollections
Which I thought bad been forgot . . ,
Came with all the gush of memory
Rushing, thronging to the spot.
And I wandered back to childhood,
To the merry days of yore.
When I knelt beside my mother, i'
By this bed upou the floor. .
Then it was with bands so gently
Placed upon my Infant head
Tbat she taught my lips to utter ,' t
Carefully the words she said. t
Never cau they be forgotten, , "
Doep are they tn memory riven:
"Hallowed be Thy name, Oh, Father!
Father.. Thou who are lu Heaven."
-. '
Thia she taught me, then she told me
Of Its Import great and deep.
After which I learned to utter
"Now I lay me down to sleep."
And it was with bauds uplifted
Aud in accents sofe aud mild,
Tbat my mother asked our Father,
"Father, do thou bless my child."
Years have passed and that dear mother ,
Long has moldered 'ueath the sod;
