My life is like the scattered wreck;
Cast by the wavesu upon the shore:
The broken hast's--thc rifted deck
Tell Of the 'shipwreck that's DER;
Yet from the relics Of the storm,
The mariner his raft willform,
Again to temptt the faithless seq,
But hope rebuilds no bark for me.
My life is like the blighted oak
That lifts itsrsear and withered form
Scath'd by the lght,Ing's sudden stroke,
Sternly TO meet the coming storm;
Yet round that sapless'triik will t~inya
The circling ,tendrils'of the vine,
And life nafreshness there i'npars--
Not to the passion-blighted heart.
Ny life islike the dssertrock,
In mid-ocean lone aud drear;
Worn by the wild WIVES ceaseless shock,
That round ihe base its surscs roar;
Yet there the scaymoss still will cling
Some flower will find a cleft to spring,
And breathe e'en there, a sweet perfume
For me, LIES flowers no more will bloom.
