The Home Circle.
THE LOST WAY. If I could only find the old, sweet way, That ran so simply, so serenely on To glad to-morrow from glad yesterday, . Greeting with content twilight, or the dawn. If I could only wake once more and find Again, each morning, the old happiness In trivial, daily round of tasks, nor mind , , Their dullness ; only gloruy ana bless W'ith song the doing. If I could but know For just a little while the still content That compassed placid days whose ebb and flow Broke on the bar of years without lament. If my tired soul could lean but for a dav, Upon the faith once potent to uphold The old belief that knew no devious way, Heard one clear call, not voices manifold ! Sunset Magazine,
