163 AN INCIDENT IN A SHIPWRECK.
A SHIP had foundered far at sea, and night Came on the waste of waters darkly down ; The rack drave wildly o'er the boding moon, At times a trembling solitary star appeared, Which still more dismal made the scene ; The wind, by fits, howled fearfully, like some Grim monster roused, and ravenous for prey. All in one boat the passengers and crew Were crowded, and the seamen said unless That lightened of her cargo she should sink. This barbarous expediency soon Was
...perpetrated : indiscriminate The passengers were flung into the sea. At last they seized a boy, a comely boy, Whose parents both before his eyes had sunk, He said, " Oh, sirs, don't throw me overboard ! Allow me first to say my prayers, and then I will go out myself. " The hand was stayed Of ruffian selfishness ! Rude natures awed, As the young hero knelt, and unto God His soul commended, and, serenely firm, Went down into the dark, unfathomed deep !
164 GLEANINGS OF THE GLOAMIN.
ON THE DEATH OF MRS.
