Page 110 - re flowing from our native hills As our free rivers flow ; The blessing of our Mother-land Is on us as we go. We go to plant her common schools On distant prairie swells, And give the Sabbaths of the wild The music of her bells.
Page 181 - So fades a summer cloud away, So sinks the gale when storms are o'er, So gently shuts the eye of day, So dies a wave along the shore.
Page 43 - I live to hold communion With all that is divine ; To feel there is a union 'Twixt nature's heart and mine ; To profit by affliction, Reap truths from fields of fiction.
Page 72 - Maturer manhood now arrives, And other thoughts come on; But with the baseless hopes of Youth Its generous warmth is gone ; Cold calculating cares succeed, The timid thought the wary deed, The dull realities of truth ; Back on the past he turns his eye, Remembering with an envious sigh The happy dreams of youth. So reaches he the latter stage Of this our mortal pilgrimage, With feeble step and slow ; New ills that latter stage await, And old experience learns too late That all is vanity below.

Page 180 - The Dead ! Cold word is dead. What dumb is to voice, and deaf is to ' the daughters of music," that, dead is to life. Shall we know them again ? Oh ! question, a thousand times asked, and a thousand times answered...
Page 101 - Thus saith the Lord God, I will yet for this be inquired of by the house of Israel, to do it for them ; I will increase them with men like a flock.
Page 167 - Where pity dwells, the peace of God is there ; To worship rightly is to love each other, Each smile a hymn, each kindly deed a prayer. Follow with reverent steps the great example Of Him whose holy work was " doing good ; " So shall the wide earth seem our Father's temple, Each loving life a psalm of gratitude.
Page 111 - Upbearing, like the Ark of old, The Bible in our van, We go to test the truth of God Against the fraud of man.
