Traveler in the strangers land,Far from thine own household band ;Mourner, haunted by the toneOf a voice from this world gone ;Captive, in whose narrow cellSunshine has no leave to dwell ;Sailor on the darkening sea—Lift the heart, and bend the knee ! PRAYER A DUTY AND PRIVILEGE. With a God of peace above thee, Canst thou languish or despair ?Tread thy griefs beneath thy feet, Scale the walls of heaven with the key of the apostle That opens heaven from below ;Tis the ladder of the patriarch Whereon angels come and go ! 787. 7SS CONSCIENCE. CONSCIENCE. Oh, Conscience ! thou tremendous powerWho dost inhabit us without our leave,And art within ourselves another self,A master self. *****How dost thou light a torch to distant deeds,Make the past present, and the future frown ;How, ever and anon, awake the soidAs with a peal of thunder to strange horrorsThrough the long, restless dream of life ? —Young.
