QUESTINGS.
What of the uncounted years Before we felt -these bonds of space and time, Or breathed Mgh yearnings unto unseen ears, Or called the promptings of this brutal Nature crime? What of the Infinite, The mystery to which we must return? The glooms, the glories of the day and night Whereof -\ye fain would learn? Sublime and grand and strange, O secrets of tlie earth and starry sky I And we desire eternity to <range « Untrodden realms — we cannot tire or die. —Charles Oscab Palmer.
