AST night I, the Spirit of Sorrow, stood by a woman's ohair ‘Neath the lamp of rosy glow, And watched the sparkle in her eye And heard the heart beat fast. She was listening, listening for the step of him She loved and had cast away. Every few minutes she would go te the mirror And it reflected @ joy, an anticipation. She fingered the stray tress And adjusted her fichy nervously, excitedly, And soon the sound that she longed for came. He entered—he stood for a moment—and opened his arms And she seemed to melt Into them. Not a word heart. was spoken; heart beat against And that moment was one of ecatacy— A moment that only the gods can know The moment of reconciliation, And I moved away into thin air. \gain at noon I stood on a crowded corner And two men came face to face Men who had worked together from boyhood, And thro h misunderstanding the misery of years had been theirs. And as they met for the first time since the break ch hesitated, but soon the spirit of me tered into their betng and both looked Into each other's eyes, and the tears camo— Manly tears that only big souls can shed And the weight of woe that had been theirs fell away And the whole gamut of their lives came before them. The time they had spent together as true comrades was recalled And they lived it again In that brief moment of reunton, When the pain of the past was put far behind And only the present pleasure was theirs. Theirs was the exquisite joy of Reoonciliation— And I was sorely shaken and fled away. If only humans could know How soon 1 can be dispelled Hy summoning the gladsome spirit of Reconciliation, Ah me!
