ifY MOTHERS LAST KISS


La ,orc est le dun hommo cvcille"
Il was an Autumn evcning-tido, aud on each
swelling hill,
The rainbow coloring Of leaves, gorgeous
pail, was still,
Tho sun went down in mellow smiles, and DER
the quiet scene
1here stolo charm moro magical than
Springs un'rodden grccn;
And as before my father door the locust shed
its leaf,
! drank my mothers parting kiss in my first
hours Of grief
Aa the hidden winds went mnrnuring by with
low and mournI'll wall.
A tear was in her thoughtful eye--hcr matron
check was pale
How strangely comes that picture up from
sorrows that are flown,
Der manhood's restless images, tallsman-
tone!-
In fancy's spell lingei yet about that sacred
spot.
And the crosses Of my pilgrimage arc in that
hour forgot;
The change and change which since have
been arc fading in my view,
And looking back, heed hot now, how limo
swift pinions flow;
heed it not, MS in my thought that parting
scene il given,
II was the first all.sunless cloud that o'et my
path was driven;
And deeply planted in my breast the springs
of feeling rise,
While rccoloction's tokens bring the heart
drops to mlnc oyes
How ,hrongcd into that bitter hour tho mono
rics oftho past!
OF Golden moments wasted, and OF dreams
that could not last
OF tho treasure. Of my boyhood's hour-the
phantoms Of its spring
Tho fresh, unsullied feelings, which only
Youth can bring;
Which color. with thoir ycarning hopcs, all
vnnitics of Garth;
That from the nowncss Of the soul have thcii
ephemeral birth;
Each haunt of wild enjoyment which thcIl
passing hours impart,
A. Beings Fastening wave is Int with DAY
beams of the heart.
And az the sun descended low, and Twilight
reign began,
How DER departed raptures all my busy mem
ories ran!
The blue lake wore smile Of love, and dim
" on lis shore
The many colorcd woodlands bent its print
less vatsrs o'oIl
And blending in the distance with the dee
mysterious sky,
The mountains nszy summit roso-the loE
cd 6fChildhood's eve; .
Oh Natures smile was beau,liul-but all wa
grofto him
Whose heart gave M It's fountain, to make h'
young eye dim!
How MANY hopes have come and gone, VII
vain and transient power,
Since DER my buoyart spirit swept the sna'
ows Of that hour
On a false world my ardent dreams, Ike Ve'
turcs, have been cast -,
have sown the wind, and now reap u
whirlwind and tho blast;
reap the tares cf cold deceit, where ffIsn
ships kindly eye -.
Once poured into nv hear, glow, Ii
Summers pictured skv;
And Romance cannot sancufy tho race !
pleasures goal,
As when my mothers priceless love vol
rapture in my soul.
Yeti only ask the memories which halo
every scene,
That stirred nv bounding bosom when ex
tence all was green;
| ask the boon Of feeling s,ill; that tend,
Of heart
