THE MOTHER.
The eventime of life has' come, and resting in its shade. She sits with sunshine on her face— sunshine peace - has made. s The kindly deed for others done shall be the oil and wine To soothe and cheer each weary hour, if she in sickness pine. " _ ■ Burden and heat of life’s long day she bore with bravest will; ( Now sunset glories round her shine, their halo crowns her still. Long may it rest on her we love, that halo bright and pure. The radiance of a life well spent, the trust in promise sure. “Bx'ittas,” in the Glasgow Observer.
