MUTUAL HEARTS.

Two mutual hearts are like tho rills,
In solitude VIXEN single,
That Wander from the moorland hills
In river streams to minglc;
And then along the fertile valo,
Their banks with blossoms painted,
They hcave tho billows 10 the gale,
Untroubled and untainted
Two mutual hearts are like the stars
Tha, aid each others shining,
When gates of day the evening bars,
And loses are dcciiniug
And through the long and lonesome nigh,
That spreads its pail Of sadnes,,
They mingle their eternal light,
To fill tho world With giadno ss
Two mutual hearts are like the flowers
Tha, twins themselves together,
When morning sends lho dronching shower,
Or evening comes to wither,
And though they fsll--as fall they must
They will not, cannot sever,
but sink together in the dust,
Together lie forever.
