To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
12$ AT TWENTY- ONE 127 A sadness creeps through my spirit, As he crosses this threshold o'er, And Time for his life that is coming Swings open his manhood's door ; While with tears I review his pathway, And dread what may come before. Ah ! me, when his feet were shorter, And the curls hung about his head, We guarded their pathway from danger My hand and a hand that is dead ; And laughed at the acts of his childhood, With the many smart things that he said. His years are all running before me, A...nd another hath taken her share, To watch the swift months in their going, As we thought of his absence with care ; For school- days are fraught with temptation, And need to be followed with prayer. We surrender our power to hold them, The boys, when they reach twenty-one, They feel that life's day is beginning, We, that life's afternoon has begun. The brilliance of noon is before them, We look to the low setting sun. We walk the still paths of the graveyard, And linger by many a mound ; Death's shadow now falleth behind them, Before us his presence is found.
