LITTLE THINGS.
A little touch that tightens The burthen of some back: A little smile that brightens. Some pathway in its track; A little touch that brightens Some tender tie that else had grown too slack. A little sigh of pleasure; A little tear that starts When joy hath reached its measure And overflows onr hearts; A little cherished treasure No bribe would buy In all the money marts. A little lark above ns, That upward soaring sings: The little oneri" that love us, And lend our spirit wings; Why, things that heavenward move ns— IDo you not tl_—;?—Are chMOy lU—e _!_»».
