THE STARS.
They glide upon their endless way,
For ever calm, for ever bright, No blind hurry, no delay, Mark the Daughters of *%he Night; They follow in the track of Day, In divine delight.
And o&l! How still beneath, the stars The once wild, noisy earth, -doth lie; As though s&e now forsook her jars, And caught the quiet of tbe sky. Pride sleeps; and Love (witfe all lia scars) . -
In smiling dreams doth - lie.
Shine on, sweet orbed souls, for aye, , For ever calm, for ever bright: We ask not whither lies your way, Nor wihen you came, nor what your
light,
Be, still —a dream throughout thie day, A blessing through the night.--* —Barry- Cornwall.
