Hail ii lit mi eke journal. ^qbaHDMOTHER tenterden. <)fa«»«ehu»etU Shore, 1800.) BT BKF.THABTK. I mind it was but yesterday— The sun was dim, the air was chill; Below the town, below the bill, The sails of my son’s ship did fill— My Jacob, who was cast away. He said, “God keep you, mother dear,” But did not turn to kiss his wile; They had some foolish, idle strife, Her tongue was like a two-edged knife, And he was proud as any peer. Jlowheit that uight I took no note Of sea nor sky, for ail was urear, I marked not that the hills looked near. Nor that the moon, though curved and clear. Through curd-like scud did drive and float. For with my darling went the joy Of autumn wo ds and meadows brown, I came to hate the little town; It seemed as if the sun went down With him, my only darling boy. It was the middle of the night, The wind it hilled west-by-soulh; It piled high up the harbor mouth; The marshes, hi eck with summer drouth, Were all abroad with sea-foam white. It was the middle of the nigfil— The sea upon the garden leapt, And my son’s wife in quiet slept, And I, his mother, waked and wept. When lo! there came a sudden light. And there he stood I his seaman’s dress All wet and dripping seemed to be; The pale b ue fires of the sea Dripped flora Ins garments constantly— I could not speak through cow ardness. “I come throngh night and storm,’’ he said: “Through storm and night and death,” said he, “To kiss my wife, if it so be That strife still holds ’twixt her and me, For all beyond is Peace," he said. “The sea is His, and he who sent The wind and wave can sooth their strife; And brief and foolish is our life.” He stooped anil kissed his sleeping wife, Then sighed, and, like a dream, he went. Now, when my darlingkissed not ine. But her—his wife—who did not wake, My heat t within me seemed to break; 1 swore a vow I nor thenceforth spake Of what my clearer eyes did see. And when the slow weeks brought him not, Somehow we spoke of aoght beside; For she,—her hope upheld her pride; And I,—in me all hope had died, And my son passed as If forgot. It was about the next spring-tide, She pined and faded where she stood; Yet spake no word of ill nor good; She had the hard, cold Edwards’ blood Jn all her veins,—and so Bhe died. One time 1 thought,-before she passed. To give her peace, but ere 1 spake, Meihought, “/lew-ill be first to break The news in Heaven,” and for his sake I held mine hack until the last. And here I sit, nor care to roam; I only wait to hear lus call; I doubt not that this day, next fall, Shall see me safe in gort; where all And every ship at last comes home. And yon hare sailed the Spanish main, An3 know my Jacob Eh I Mercy! Ah God of wisdom! hath the sea Yielded its dead to humble me My hoy my Jacob Turn again! _J --'-JIS* Sewing Machines The World Benownrd. The Best on Earth.
