 EPILOGUE.

''Spoken by a Daughter of Eve, who is weeping, and an Angel, who looks out of fashion.''

This is only sorrow

For To-Day.

Life begins To-Morrow!

So they say.

Life with one love and laughter

Gay and free—

Yet no heartache after.

Can it be?

Life with work that reaches

To the sky;

Life that never teaches

How to die. Life that is eternal, Ever young,
