WITHOUT GOD IN THE WORLD.

By Eliza H. Morton

BY ELIZA H. MORTON.
SAD, oh, how sad that life must be Anchored to earth; Sad, though the lips and heart may seem Careless with mirth!
Sad, for a grave athwart each path Darkens the way. Life is so short,—the morning bright, Then evening gray.
Sad, just to live a fleeting hour Suffering pain. Loving? Perchance, with a wounded heart Never again.
Sad as a lark with broken wing, Mother bird flown, So is the soul without its God, Homesick, alone.
