YESTERDAY AND TO-DAY.

Out of the sunshine into the rain; The way is steep, and I walk alone; I call aloud, but I call in vain, Through the darkness comes no answering tone.
I have dreamed my golden dream, alas! I have buried my hope with a bitter pain;— Is it weak to weep when we sadly pass Out of the sunshine into the rain?
Into the sunshine out of the rain; The clouds peel off, and the sky is blue; I walk in the beautiful paths again, Where the song-birds built, and the roses grew.
O the new-born glory around me shed! O the voices that charm like a sweet refrain! Thank God for the hand that my footsteps led Into the sunshine out of the rain.
