The Indian Advocate
Ml AY 1902.
THE RIVER.
Amid the rushes preen and slight
Beneath the willows tall and strong
Wave after wave so fast and bright
The river runs along.
I see it flow; away away
Along the same broad even track
The waves sweep onward night and day
But never one comes back.
And thus it is time passes by
Nor ever stops for joy or pain;
Thus years and clays and moments fly
But never come back again.
The shadows on the river fall
The wave reflects them every one
The bending rush the poplar tall
But carries witlf it none.
And every virtue every crime
Our thoughts our deeds our feelings cast
A shadow on the stream of time
As it goes rushing past.
Then as we watch the river flow
Think we how time doth ever glide
And pray we that our lives may throw
Bright shadows on the tide.
