GRATITUDE. 
Rich, though poor! 
My low-roofed cottage is this hour a Heaven! 
Music is in it—and the song she sings, 
That sweet voiced wife of mine, arrests the ear 
Of my young child awake upon her knee ; 
And with his calm eye on his master’s face 
My noble hound lies couchant. * * * * 
Tiiou, who look’st 
Upon my brimming heart this tranquil eve, 
Knowest its fullness, as Thou dost the dew 
Sent to the hidden violet by Thee ! 
And as that flower from its unseen abode 
Sends its sweet breath duly up to the sky, 
Changing its gift to incense—so, O God ! 
May the sweet drops, that to my humble cup 
Find their far way from Heaven, send back 
in prayer 
Fragrance at thy throne welcome ! 
Willis.
