Died yesterday: "Died yesterday," so-and so. Every day a flower is plucked frbui some sunny home?a breach is made in s uno happy eirclo?a jewel stolen from some troosu ry of love. Each day, from summer fields of life, Borne harvest disappears?yea, every hour same sentinel falls from the ramparts into eternity. Even as we write, the funer ul of one who "died yesterday," winds like a winter, shadow along the streots. "Died yesterday " Who died* l'er taps it was a gentle babo, fciuless as an tingle, pure as the zephyr's hymn?one whose laugh was'as the gu-h of Summer rills loitering in the bower of roses? whose life was but a perpetual litany? a May-time crowned with the passion flowers that never fade. Or, mayhap it was a youth hopeful, happy and gcuorous, whose path was hemmed by flowers, with not a serpmt lurking underneath?one whoso soul pauted for communion with the groat and good, and reached for the gricrd >n in the distance, llut that heart is still now, ho "died ycs'.erday." "Died yesterday." A young girl pure as the orange flowers that clasped her forehead was stricken down as she sto.nl nt the alter?and from the strong aisles ( f the temple, she was borne to the "garden of iho slumbcrcrs.' A tall, crowned man, girl with the halo of victory and at the day's close, under his own viuc and fig tree fell to dust even as the anthem upon his lips; and ho too, was laid "where tho fore fathers of the rude hamlet sleep" An aged patijarch bowed with age and cares, oven as he locked out upon the distant hills fur the coming of the angel hosts, sank into dreamless slumber und on hi.-; door po^t is written; '-Died yestcrJny" ? ?Died ycslerdny.
