Old Father Time, with visage
grim,
Marks finis on another year;
His harvest he has gathered in;
The 6wath was wide both far
and near.
The strife of battle rages round
The ranks of fighters in the
van,
But clashing arms and 6houts
resound
Of victor and of conquered

And hoary lock of silvery
white,

The sunset's glow, the clouds

At home, but recently re-

A loved one gone above to wear
The crown of bliss by angels
twined.
The path to glory may not lead
With roses strewn about the
feet,
But hope and strive by word
and deed
Some soul to cheer. The New
