    THE ANGEL OF THE TWILIGHT.
The angel of the twilight
Is garbed in hodden gray—
8he comes upon the shadows
That holds the closing day.
Her wings beat slowly, slowly,
Her voice is of the blest;
As comes her soothing crooning:
“0, tired ones, I bring rest.”
The angel of the twilight—
If we could see her face—
Is one of wondrous beauty,
Of gentleness and grace.
She pillows all the weary
Upon her garment's folds,
And they who sigh of sorrow
Within her arms she holds.
The angel of the twilight
Sings rarest lullables—
She croons of coming blessings,
Contentment and heart's ease,
The babs, the man, the woman,
Hear her lew voice the while,
And sink to seftest slumber,
l.ed by her song and smile.
Tre angel of the iwilight,
Clad all in hedden gray—
She brings the gentle darkness
That hides the cares of day;
She brings us balm and balsam
From out the starry west,
When crooning, softly
She murmurs: “I bring rest.”
