your muscles xhaustcd know the new that Like a great its scenes swiftly glide Each day still new views we behold Which pass as a vision that will not abide As a dream that we cannot unfold Ad a book that we read but a page at a time the rest till we read Sometimes it is simple and sometimes sublime But we read on not taking much heed We come to the end of the book by and by And regret that it ended soon And close up its lids with a halfsmothered sigh- Lay the volume reluctantly down Thua the few years allotted for mortals to spend Are closed as a page one by one Vet wo sigh when we think we are the end That our lifework ere long will be done Ho year after year hurries on to the past Till they make up a whole century Each one flying swifter more fleet than the last As a river when the sea Farewell ninetyeight thou old greyhaired sire Thy record is famous today by heroes are noted for chivalrous fire While veterans brave passed away Since first thou was launched on thy changeful career Thy duties not then understood What contests abroad and fierce struggles anear For the triumph of evil or good Homo men have been honored for valorous deeds As heroes are afar But more heroes died whose names no one heeds But such the glory of war What thrilling adventures where danger was rife With many a tragical end men in mad baste for more wealth lost their life For this hope of more money to spend Who risked all they had left the comforts of home In a venture for uncertain gold On the bleak frozen mountains where wild beasts still They perished with hunger and cold roam The world has grown better since first you appeared The Gospel is marching along The stirring events which their sojourn shared The new year will surely prolong The last of thy name will ere long usher in A century new and untried When the struggles for truth greater conquests shall win To be borne on eternitys tide Richmond Hill Dec P instance the wad will carve around probably miles and around again
