MINE OWN.


"Thou art mine own, my best beloved,
Thou art indeed mine, own;
What though forever from my heart
Its early joys have flown!
A bird is singing sweeter far
Than those which made their nest,
Before I, fe's morning ray was pale,
In my unruifled breast!
Once all was bright and all was fair;
Each merry fount Of juno
Played like seraph's lutte, for me
A soft, celestial tune.
The blossoms and the dewy leaves,
That stopped to kiss the flowers,
Shed perfume round the dancing feet
OF boyhood's froiick hours.
Now in the steams and in the buds
No tones nor odors dwell, a.
For Fancy, like a changeful nympy,
Has sigh'd adfarewell. \
But thou to me art music, love,
And the enamored air
Is rife with sweetness, when feel
That thou ART present there.
Mine own. Within those charmed words
What fond endearmen, lies!
Lured by the spell, what lovely scenes
Along the future rise!
For age will wear more brilliant plumcs
Than youths gay season Gown,
Since thou art now, in very TRUTH,
My beautiful, mine own!"
