HIGHER DESTINIES.
AH common things, each day's events That with the hour begin and end, Our pleasures and our discontents, Are rounds by which we may ascend. Standing on what too long we bore With shoulders bent and downcast eyes, We may discern—unseen before— A path to higher destinies. Nor deem the irrevocable past As wholly wastqfl, wholly vain, If, rising on its wrecks, at last _ To something nobler we attain. —Longfellow.
