SOUNDINGS.
♦ "Ltttle w« know of the hoary Sea Till the Men of Lead *iid Line . Soire as a tithe of ita myttery, «bew Strange gleams of the limitUst life twlow With their soundings: bern be mine." " TIME AND THE HOTJB ." | Poor Soul, the wanton Wcrld hath had its way, Its heartless way with Thee, too long, too ' long, And swept Thee like a b*rk beneath the strong And mastering cyclone, shattered, stung with spray, Wide leagues across the unplumbed, uncharted gray. Yet, can the Judge of All the Earth do wrong? Wait : the' worst tempest passetih, and tit< soaag ,Of soft Sea-maidens crowneth the glad day Wait, thou shait find Thee blest beyond all dream, Beyond ev'n JSope's high vision lha/ beguiles Earth's burdened moment with ce!estisu' gleam, Beyond the fairest fruit of Fancy's wiles • O Bark, storm-driven, the eternal Ocean Stream Hath loved Thee well, and lo! the Happy Isles. Mabstas.
