‘Mid rocks and hidden shoals.
A soul ‘mid glorious souls—
A small, pure star within the glittering band
That high above the clouds, undimmed and grand,
In placid beauty rolls,
To herald on the weary to the land
Where all is rest and peace; to guide the way
To Heaven’s unclouded day!”
S. C. E. M.
HESPER, THE HOME-SPIRIT.
