 YOUTH AND A G K . 



B» I" IRK BENJAMIN, tSQ. 



When we are young, our days are like 



The fountain wavi s thai flow in June, 

 1 hat sparkle in Uie golden sun. 



Or gleam beneath the silver moon. 

 When we are old, our moments glide 



Like winter waters cold and drear, 

 That freeze before Dnceinber'a voice 



Has sighed the dealli-note uf the year. 



When we are young, the clouds around 



Our path have hues of glory on, 

 I/ike those which sleep on summer skies 



Before the crimson flush is gone. 

 When we are old, no ray concealed 



Within the folded vapor lies, 

 But glooming shadows overspread 



The circle of Life's evening skies. 



Oh then, since with the hours that fade 



Our being's light is fading too, 

 How shall we find a hope to cheer 



When we to youth must bid adieu ! 

 In heaven, and not on earth, there glows 



A sun whose pure and perfect ray 

 Will warm the freezing waves of life 



And change its twilight into day. 



THE LIGHT OF OTHER DAYS. 



The light of other days is faded, 



And all their glories past ; 

 For grief heavy hath shaded 



The hopes too bright to last ; 

 The world which morning's mantle clouded 



Shines with purer rays ; 

 But the heart ne'er feeis, in sorrow shrouded 



The light of other days. 



The leaf which Autumn tem^sls wither, 



The birds which then take Wing, 

 When winter's winds are past, come hither 



To welcome back the Spring ; 

 The very ivy on the ruin, 



In gloom full life displays ; 

 But the heart alowe sees no renewing 



The light of other days.
