AND YET.
We know-'th'at'Wroh'ga forever bring Their pangs of; deep regret, To rankle m the heart and sting Our consciousness, And yet— We go on sinning day v by day , And add to our distress,' Until wo lose the gracious way That leads to' happiness. "
Wo know that life is but a day — That from the bassinette 1 Unto 4-h.e sepulchre . the way Is very short, And yet — '. ? -..,... Wo d 6 not seek the deathless spring Until it is -too late, And while the bells of heaven, ring Wo stand outside the gate.
