Nature is a book of parables. If its laws
are not identical with those oi the spiritual
world, its analogies illustrate that world.
The morning mist quickly disappearing,
the rapid flood, the evening shadows, the
grain soon cut down and the flower wither
ing, are obvious emblems of the brevity of
life. So also is the foliage of Autumn: "We
all do fade as a leaf." All leaves fade; of
the mighty oak as of the fragrant rose as
of the nettle. Kings and rulers perish
with the humblest of their subjects; those
who tower high above their fellows equal
ly with those whose lot is the most obscure
and who win no praise. The leaf is beau
tiful in structure, form and color, yet it
fades so does the human body, still more
wonderfully made. What varied changes
does the leaf undergo! A tiny bud uafold
ingits silken softness; glittering in the
bpnng sunshine ; breathing the fragrance
of the blossoms; listening to the music of
black birds or thrush nestling in its covert;
then matching the blossoms fall; scorched
by the Summer sun, smitten by the thun
der-storm, drenched by the rain; then
bruised by the blasts of Autumn and nipped
by the frosts of approaching winter till it
fades, and falls ! Even so the life of man
unfolds from infancy, is arrayed in the
flowers of childhood and the hopeful blos
soms of youth, is worn and wrinkled by the
cares and labors of after-years, by seasons
w:hen the heats are scorching and there is
little dew, and showers are rare ; when
storms of disappointment burst on it, and
the leaf trembles and sighs to be released.
Life often ends prematurely. The cater
pillar devours tho bud, the frosts of Spring
kill the tender leaf.the lightning-flash burns
it up, the haif bruises it,or, long before Au
tumn-time, it yields to the long drought
and the hot, hot sun!
