A HEAVENLY VISION.

By A. R. Wilcox

BY A. R. WILCOX.
I SEE the golden city bright, Prepared by hands divine. I long to roam the blest domain And call its pleasures mine.
The walls of precious stone are built, The gates are pearly white, And streets of shining gold reflect The beams of God's own light.
Fair mansions rise on either side; Their praise I would prolong; The tree of life with fadeless bloom O'ershades a happy throng.
Life's river, too, its crystal tide From God's great throne doth flow; Its calm and tranquil course leads out Where heav'nly zephyrs blow.
Yes, far beyond the gates of pearl, In faultless beauty laid, Are glory fields, how passing fair! Their verdure ne'er shall fade.
Athens, Vt.
