ORIGINAL HYMN.

BY MRS. JANE D. CHAPLIN, EAST ABINGTON.

The hour hath come, --- the parting hour;
   Yet how the sad "Farewell"
Lingers upon the trembling lip; ---
   Grown-boyhood's dying knell!
             Then bless us, O our friends, to-day,
                With words of lofty cheer;
             As through the future's unknown paths,
                Each seeks his chosen sphere;

To strike the anvil, guide the plough,
   The statesman's power to wield;
Or, patriot-like, to carve our names
   Upon our country's shield;
             Or, nobler still, to rally where
                The Saviour's banners fly;
             To bear the blood-stained cross afar,
                And win a crown on high!

This golden year hath showered her days
   Like gems, with lavish hand,
Nor called us once 'neath willow tree,
   By open grave to stand;
             No glad young eye, no bounding heart,
                Death-touched, hath passed away;
             Gaze on our brother-band, O friends!
                We are all here to-day.

We part; oh! may we meet again,
   Where skies are ever fair, ---
Old Phillips' sons of fifty-nine,
   Nor one be missing there
             Then shall we clasp these hands again,
                These golden cords unite,
             And dwell together, toiling still,
                On the broad fields of light.
