moment, ard upon human face never

las sung By Miss Watson.]
Upon the mill he turned,
To take last fond look
Of the valley and the village church,
And the cottage by the brook.
He listened to the sounds
So familiar to his ear,
And the soldier leant upon his sword,
And wip'd away the tear.
Beside that cottage porch
A girl was on her knees;
She held aloft snowy scarf,
Which flutteredinthe breeze;
She breath'd prayer for him,
Z A prayer he could not hear,
But he paused to bless her as she knelt,
And wiped away q tear.
He turned and left the spot,
Oh do not deem him weak;
For dauntless was the Soldiers heart,
Though tears were on his cheek.
Go watch the foremost ranks,
In dangers dark career;
Be sure the hand most daring there,
Has wip'd away tear.
