Pray not for ye day or night,

Too soon thy time is run;

And how canst thou discern aright,

The hours of dark or sun.

SUNDIAL OVER JOHN BUNYAN’S PRISON, BEDFORD BRIDGE.

Some days with sorrow are so full up,

’Twould take but a drop to spill the cup;

But that drop in mercy, ne’er is sent,

For troubles to kill were never meant.
