Deathless Hope.
MRS. B. L. HOWELL
"Sweet Hope is dead,n I moaned,
"And I have buried her beyond my
sight,
Henceforth the brightest day,
To me, is as the gloom of darkest
night,"
Yet even when I wept
A rift broke through the gloomy,
clouded sHies,
And Hope's glad face looked down
upon my own
With tender, loving eye?.
"My flower of Hope is gone!
The rude winds tore it from my
teuder bold;
In vain, with anxions eves.
I searched my garden and the dis
tant world."
This morning while I walked
In pensive thought adown an hum
ble street
I found my blossom in a true, true
Heart,
All dewy-fresh and sweet.
"My gem of Hope is lost!
I saw it sink beneath the billow's
crest;
The pearl of my heart
Shall shine no more upon my happy
, breast."
Last night within my room
I found a casket hidden long ago
I raised the lid, and lo! with luster
bright.
My jewel, all aglow!
Hope dead or lost? Ah, no!
She doth but vail her radiant face
and form,
As suits God's perfect will;
And though our souls seem dead to
every joy,
Some faint hope liveth still.
We may sit down in deep and dumb
despair.
Nor care to lift our eyes,
Unmindful though the voice of
friendship pleads
And suffering Duty cries;
Yet somewhere, sometime, stealing
through our hearts
So sad with grief and fear
A shy sweet Presence thrills us with
her smile
And whispers: Hope is here"
