HYMNS FOR CHILDHOOD.
57


Thou that art gathering from the smile of youth,
    Thy thousand hopes—rejoicing to behold
All the heart's depths before thee bright with truth,
    All the mind's treasure silently unfold;
Look on this tomb!—for thee, too, speaks the grave,
    Where God hath seal'd the fount of hope he gave.
