FRIENDLY COUNSEL
EVER-PRESENT HOPE. The cloud may lie dark, but there’s sunshine beyond it; The night may be o’er us, but morning is near ; The vale may be deep, but there’s music around it; And hope, ’mid our anguish, bright hope is still here.
Still here, though the wing of dark sorrow is o’er us, Though' bitterness dregs every cup that we drink, With a smile in her eye, she glides ever before us, To yield us support when we falter or sink. * * * * True love can be no more diminished by showers of evil than flowers are marred by timely rain. SIR PHILIP GIBBS. •X- -X- -X- * Nothing is more common than the name of friend; nothing is more rare than true friendship. PIIAEDRUS.
