Every Ye?r.
The Fjvrlnj*' Tut? less (?I brightness'
Every year,
And Um snow n ghastlier whiteness
Every year;
Nor do summer 'lowers qnleken,
Nor autumn fruitage thicken
As they once OKI, lor they sicken
fiyery year.
It is growing darker, colder
Ii very year;
As the befirt ami soui grow older,
Every .veal1;
I*cure not now for dancing,
Or for eyes with passion glancing,
Jiove is lofr? and less entrancing
Every year'. *
Of the lovo? and sorrows blended
Every year\ .
Of the charms of friendship ended
Kvery year;
Of I lie lies that still might bind me,
Until time to deatli resigned me,
My infirmities remind mu
Every year.
Ali! how" say! to look before hs
Every year;
While the cloud grows darker o'er us
Ever}' year,
when we sec the blossoms faded.
That to bloom we-tnl/ht have aided,
And immortal garlands braided
Every year.
To th? pnso <ra more dead faces
Every year;
As the lovt it leave vacant places
Every year \
Everywhere the sad eyes meet us,
la the evenln?'s du.sk they greet us,
And to conn' to I hem entreat us
Every year.
"You are growing old," they tell us,
"Every year;
You arc more alone." they tell us,
"Every year;
You can win no new affection,
Von have only recollection,
Deeper sorrow and dejection,
Every year.
Yes! the scores of lifo are shifting
Every year,
And we ar?? seaward drifting
Every year,
Old places, chaiieing. fret us;
The living more forget us,
There are fewer to regret us,
Every year.
But the truer life draws nlgher
Every year;
And its morning -tar climbs higher
Ever}' year;
1?artb*s held on us grows slighter,
And llie heavy burdens lighter,
-And the (lawn itnmortal brighter,
Every year.

home, it is an utter impossibility for
the man living next door to bo a
Christian.
