Hangs swe. ,Iy round our happy hearts,
When loves carcss is wild an, warm
And pure the Joy rEa, life impar,s.
When home is home, and friends tho few
When DER our veal with anxious eve
'Tis then life wears its brghte>, hue,
And memory takes its dccpes' dye.
Long years may lifi their Ieahen tramp
Aud chequer life with hopes and fears,
Misfortune light her lurd lamp,
And feed its fame with nought but tears,
Or friendship bless, or fortune smile,
Or pleasure wal, whcrc'er we roam,
Still-still will memory Off hegu''c
From each. from all, thought Of home.
Twas there our sun Of being rose,
And there we Eain would have it set,
There many IL shrub and fowret grows
With dew oldawu, that lingcrs yet.
Like midday drops where friends repose
BY yew-tree's bough or cypress shaded
Or like some wild autnmual rose,
Freshest when all around is faded.
would not that a stranger land
Should hold ini M the dreamlcs> pillow,
/ would NOT that stranger land
Should pl,'n' o'erm me tn" weeping willow
The sod sn often lightly pressed
Would on my bosom press most lightly.
The stars that have my childhood blessed
Would DER my slunbcr beam most
brightly.
Q may the breeze ;hat kissed nv brow
Ere life had known ii ST ain nf SORROW,
Breathe OUT the wavc-tonrd requiem low
For sleep thai knows no dawnine morrow
And when the sun is 'ura,h the wave,
And ianlly beams the star ofevrn,
Then hear me To my sea-eirt grave
And let pra. er ascend 10 Heaven.
