What tho' my head . be White as Snow s I
My forehead plow•'d by many a flirro4-,
My body bent like an Indian bow,'-
And I a stick am fain' to borrow• ?
What though my sight begins, to fade,
I still can find my way along; .
What though my hearing is decayed, 1
I still can hear the woodland' song.
And tho' young : Faney's dreams are
.1 still banquet on the past ; ,• •
And draw from mem'ry's ample suire
As rich a treat as Dope's repast..
As o'er my shoulder, back I peer,
I-see no grinning Rpeetres pale,
scowling imps of guilt or fear,.
That flog my steps and. snuff-the.gale
Scene marks fiiere are, I must confess;
Long time chalked up behind the door—i
Some old offences, more or less.
I wish were rubbed from ont the corei:
But He who gave blood for all,
hope has shed one'drop•for rne,
When he at'oped for Adam's fall; '
On the Cross of Cnlvarv.

The ,sunshine still is clear and bright
