PINE, 
Pinus. Class 21. — Order 16. 
Found from Canada to Carolina. Leaves dark green 
and glossy. 
Time and Faith 
Wait thou for Time, but to thy heart take Faith, 
Soft beacon-light upon a stormy sea: 
A mantle for the pure in heart, to pass 
Through a dim world, untouched by living death, 
A cheerful watcher through the spirit’s night, 
Soothing the grief from which she may not flee— 
A herald of glad news — a seraph bnght, 
Pointing to sheltering havens yet to be. 
Miss Luct Hooper.
