A Perfect Day.
Along therock-lwtmd.ehprethe-fiunshuie crept; j Our little boat upon tnt_guinmer sea Bocked lightly* and a merry crew were we, Yet eyes were there which hitter tears had And hearts^were there thit lqnely secrets'kept, Even as on the teefHay winter wrecks Of riven marts' and ruined quatter-decks, While in the sirany sea the dead men elept ; s And tears will fall again, and 'storms will break, Hearts will beat low, and faces will grow pale ; And yet new dawns will blusb, and sea -bud* wake. •"'■■■■ , Our God was with our gladness. Come what may 1 , '■ Nbthing'cih rob us of a perfect day. Nor of the faith that Bach days shall not fail. —Quiver. -,
