SUPPOSE.
Suppose that it were told some summer's eve, Told in some town that looks upon the sea, Told by sure token fill men must believe. That sunset they behefyt the last should La Which ever in the tioldep .west would leave Promise of dawn; and never more with glee Should birds make twittering, as the lirst 'beam» cleave The trembling darkness of the eastern tee— Oil I how along the quay, at every door, Would all the people stand, silent and pale, Staring with eyes amazed at sea and shore, And on each other— their hearts would fail; How new and strange familiar things would seem By the last sunset's last departing gleam I ' .'MARY A.
