He paused, but found he had no colin to dole. His guardian angel warned him not to lose This chance of pearl to do another good ; 80, as he waited, sorry to refuse _ The asked-for penny, there aside he stood, And with his hat held as by limb the nes He Wohin his kind face and sang his best. The sky was blue above, and all the lane Of commerce, where the singer stood, was filled, And many paused, and listening, paused again To hear tha volee that through and through them thrilled. I think the guardian angel helped along That ory for pity woven in a song. “The singer stood between the beggars there, Before a church, and overhead the spire A slim. perpetual finger in the air Held toward Heaven, land of the heart's desire— As if an angel, pointing up, had said: * Yonder a crown awaits this singer's head.” “The hat of its stamped brood was emptied | soon s'Into the woman's lap, who drenched with tears Her kiss upon the hand of help : "twas noon, And noon in her glad heart drove forth | | her fears. The singer, pleased, passed on and softly thought : # Men will not know by whom this deed ’ was wrought.” But when at night he came upon the stage Cheer after cheer went up from that wide throng, And flowers rained on him ; nought could assuage The tumult of the welcome save the song That he had sweetly sung, with cov- ered face, For the two Doggars in the market | plaec.
