The steed that bore us through the woods, aglow With sunshine, where the morning-glories creep, AVill bear us safely through the mud-streaked snow Until it lies at least five inches deep. THE LIGHT OF LOVE. w HEN shadows gloom upon our earthly way The light of love turns midnight into day; Restores the ring of gladness to the voice, And bids oppressed and careworn men rejoice. When joys of love in human hearts abide The common things of earth are glorified; They cheer our lives throughout the p...assing days, And wrap the future in a golden haze. The joybells ring with impulse born of love — A foretaste, here, of better things above,— But care and sorrow with the hearts abide That only look upon its darker side. The eye of love is swift to read mischance In clouded brow, or half averted glance; And to the ear of love a word or tone Speak volumes, in a language all its own. By Heath and Prairie. 113 Where tiow'rs the rose of love the way is spanned By thorns that pierce the bold and careless hand; But who of love, sweet love, would live forlorn Through dread of his impalement by the thorn?
