Tm Old To-J)ay. E
An aged man on reaching his 70th birthday,
like one surprised, paced his room, exclaiming
"1 am an old man! I am an old man J" J
I wake at last; I've dreamed too long
"Where are my three score years and ten ?
My eye is keen, my limbs are strong; :
I well might vie with younger men:
The world, its passions and its strife,
Is passing from my grasp away ;
And though this pulse seems full of life, -
I'm old to-day, I'm old to-day.
Strange that I never felt before
That I had almost reached my goal, .
My bark is nearing deaths dark shore ;
Life's waters far behind me roll : -And
yet I love their murmuring swell,
Their distant breaker's proud array ;
And must I, can I say "Farewell?" .
I'm old to-day, I'm old to-day.
. ' '' ' '
This house is mine, and these broad lands
That slumber neath yon fervid sky ; ,-
Yon brooklet, leaping OTer the sands, v.
Has often met my boyish eye: , ' v
I loved those mountains when a child j
They still look young in green array ; ? .
Ye rocky cliffs, ye summits wild,'
I'm old to-day, I'm old to-day. .
'Twixt yesterday's short hours and me
A mighty gulf hath intervened
A man with men I seemed to be ;
But now 'tis meet I should be weaned
From all my kind and kindred dear,
From these deep skies, that landscape gay
From joys and hopes I've cherished here;
I'm old to-day, I'm old to-day.
O, man of years I while earth recedes,
Look forward, upward, not behind !
Why dost thou lean on broken reeds ? '
Why still with earthly fetters bind
Thine ardent soul T . God gave it wings
'Mid higher purer joy 8 to stray ;'
In heaven no happy spirit sings, .
I'm old to-day, I'm old to-day.
