EVENING STAR. CHILDHOOD. BY FRANCIS FULLER BARRITT. A childof ecarcely reven years— Light-haire + fair as any lily ; With pure eyes readn in their tears At chiding words or es chilly; And sudden smiles, as inly bright ,, As lamps through alabaster shining, i“ ith ready mirth and fancies light, Dash’n with -trange dreams and child-divining! A child in ail infantile grace, Yet with the angel lingering in her face. A curious, eager, questioning child, Whose logic leads to naive conclasions ; Her tite knowledge reconciled ‘To trnth amid some sad confusions; Yet ercduteus, end loving much ‘The problems hardest for her reason ; Placing her lovely faith on such, And deeming disbelief a treason ; Doubting that which she can disprove, And wisciy Wusting all the reat to love. Such graces dweil beside your hearth, And bless you in your household fairy, Lexving no sweeter spot on earth han that which holds your little Mary. No entertainment ever yet Had baif the exquisite completeness, The pleasure without one regret You gather irom your darliag’s sweetness; An angel cits besi-fe the bearth Woere’er aa innocent chite is found on earth.
