LIFE’S LIKENESS.
I/Vritteiz in iiiiitation of the Poetry of the
\ 17th Century.
Life is-—-what?
It is the shooting of a star,
That gleains along the traeklcss air,
’ ‘And vanishes, almost ere seen, to naught ;
. 1 And such is man— -
He shines and flutters for a span, .
And is"forgot.
Ijife is—-wh at ?
I It is the veriiieil of the rose,
That blooms but till the weak wind blows,
Then all eiitoinbed, in sweets doth fade and rot,
rid such is inan— ’
He ‘starts in bravery for a span
And is forgot.
Life is—wliat ?
It" is the dew drop of the morn,
. That quivering hangs upon the thorn,
’Till quatfedl by sunbeams, ’tis no longer aught;
And such is man-
He lingers for a span,
[And melts forgot.
\ Life is—wh at '.’
‘ A stone, whose fall doth circles make,
—_ On the smooth surface of the lake,
.- Vhich spread till one and all forsake the spot;
And such is inaii--
’Midst friends he revels for aispan,
And sinks forgot.
Life is-—what?
/ It_is a bubble‘ on the main,
Rais’d by a little globe of rain,
7tVhose air destroys the fabric it has wrought :
- And such is man— ' .
' Swell’d into being for a span,
And broke, forgot.

Ashadow on the mountain’s side,
, Or rock that doth in either ride,
Driven by the nortlien gale, with tempest

_ And such is niai1—
He hangs on greatness for a span,
And is forgot.
