MAY. THE Voice of one who goes before to make Sorrows are everywhere, Joys all too few! Have we not had our share Of pleasure too? No Past the glad heart cowers, No memories dark; The dial mark. May 2. E. C. Stedman. Boldness and firmness, these are virtues each; May 3. J. B. O'Reilly. "Thou art poor, art thou? Yet thou lovest me!" Her pale face flushed with a burning red : "Well, Maud is poor, and she loveth thee; So now we are rich, are we not?" she said, And faltered, all trembling with love confessed; And I, with knowing I was so dear, Trembled, but gathered my rose to my breast; And Love was answered, and Life was clear. Mrs. Z. B. Gustafson. |
