168. lappuse - Were early pluck'd for heaven. Oh yes ! on every side we see The impress of his hand ; — The air we breathe is full of Him, And the earth on which we stand. Yet heedless man regards it not, But life's uncertain day In idle hopes and vain regrets Thus madly wastes away. But in his own appointed time He will not be forgot ; — Oh ! in that hour of fearful strife, Great God, forget me not ! BY THE REV.
144. lappuse - ... without tearing. To the top of the upright stick of the cross is to be fixed a very sharp pointed wire, rising a foot or more above the wood.

103. lappuse - Where never gleam'd the red sun-light, Where foot of man ne'er trod, Down, down they go, and left and right The wall of waters stood. Full soon along that vale of fear.

Spirits that we think to capture, By a false and childish scheme, Until tears dissolve our rapture, Darkness ends our dream. Thus are objects loved the dearest, Distant as the dazzling star ; And when we appear the nearest, Farthest off we are.
142. lappuse - ... the electric fluid more readily, than such as are terminated by flat surfaces 10. Lightning takes the readiest and best conductor ; so does the electrical fluid : lightning burns; so does electricity : "lightning sometimes destroys life ; animals have also been killed by electricity. 11.

132. lappuse - Hush ! your step some note is giving ; Not a whisper — not a breath ! Watchful be as aught that's living, And be mute as death...
195. lappuse - Where the dirgelike tone of parting words Shall smite the soul no more ! And thou wilt see our holy dead, The lost on earth and main ; Into the sheaf of kindred hearts, Thou wilt be bound again ! Tell, then, our friend of boyhood, That yet his name is heard On the blue mountains, whence his youth Pass'd like a swift bright bird.
164. lappuse - Heaven ; — fhe flower that freely casts its wealth Of perfume on the gale ; The breeze that mourns the summer's close With melancholy wail ; The stream that cleaves the mountain's side, Or gurgles from the grot — All speak in their Creator's name, And say
