When I am Gone.
-HELEN M. WKSLOVi\
When I am gone, Dear friends will cluster round my silent form And say, " How good she was ! How noble, true, How quick to sympathise with others, too, And strong to battle life's severest-storml" My faults — so many — will be all forgot ; • My temper— sometimes hasty— then will not Remembered be ; for when our friends Lie dead, their goodness far transcends Their faulte. 0, friends, remember this ; Daily that tender sympathy I need Which then my deafened senses cannot heed ; Bo give me now the love I shall not miss When I am gone. -Every Oilier Saturday.
