On the white shore dripping, dripping, suck'd in by the sand,
Tears, not a star shining, all dark and desolate,

Moist tears from the eyes of a muffled head;

O who is that ghost? that form in the dark with tears?
What shapeless lump is that, bent, crouch'd there on the sand?
Streaming tears, sobbing tears, throes, choked with wild cries;
O storm, embodied, rising, careering with swift steps along the
beach!

O wild and dismal night storm, with wind-O belching and desperate!

O shade so sedate and decorous by day, with calm countenance and regulated pace,

But away at night as you fly, none looking-O then the unloosen'd ocean,

Of tears! tears! tears.

'T is the part of a coward to brood

O'er the past that is withered and dead;

WALT WHITMAN.

What though the heart's roses are ashes and dust?
What though the heart's music be fled?

Still shine the grand heavens o'erhead,

Whence the voice of an angel thrills clear in the soul,
"Gird about thee thine armor, press on to the goal!"
PAUL H. HAYNE: Lyric of Action.

Thrift of time will repay you in after life with a usury of profit beyond your most sanguine dreams.

W. E. GLADSTONE.

Self-reverence, self-knowledge, self-control-
These three alone lead life to sovereign power.

Youth Fleeting.]

CCLXVIII.

TENNYSON: Enone.

In youth there comes a west wind

Blowing our bloom away,—

A chilly breath of autumn
Out of the lips of May.

We bear the ripe fruit after,

Ah me! for the thought of pain!-
We know the sweetness and beauty
And the heart-bloom never again.

W. D. HOWELLS: Pleasure-Pain.
