—if only this .bitter cup might pass trent her

As she prayed, an Angel oppearodunto:her
and said, " Death tarries hard . by .. ; to -
him perchance ho may harken.. unto your

Then sbe arose, kissed the brow of her child
and wrapping her mantle tound'her, set forth

of winder, - and the ground was covered with
snow. Yet she" heeded it not, althou'gh - her
footsteps were marked by her blood;'l'M. the

Dark and icy were its waves ; there was no: 1

on the ground.. Iler heart was on fire, and
her breath i!etene burningly forth—when, lo!
the river became dried up, and she Walked
across, and entered the deep valley where
Death still slumbered.'
As she looked on him, she ti.as amazed, and
said r "Surely, it this be Death, he will grant
my prayer, cruelty rannot dwell in that ser
aphic form."
Then came again the thought of her child,
and she sat down, on a stone And wept bit

And the noise of her sobs mid sighs awoke
Death, who said unto her "Woman why weep.

She replied, "Yes, -if it must be even so,
only a little while longer. Why, Twill give
all I possess on earth; or my own life if thou

But he said, " 1 emariot take thy, life in

Then Death said titito her, "His life is spared!

And, in silence and darkness, she retraced
