eyes, WE HAVE PARTED.n
Yes, we have parted! never more
Shalleur discovered journeys meet:
Times wave has left upon the shore
No reconls of our mutual feet,
When, hanl in hand, together we
Went onward by Life's sparkling sea!
Thou hast forgotton-I have sought
Another from the tender prize
OF feeling, sympathy and thought
That had their language in thine eyes
To marvel now if we forget
We ever lored or ever met
And still there flew some halcyon hours
Along the billows-stil there breathed
A sweet, soft atmosphere of flowers
That round the shrines of home were wrea
thcd
Alas! the halcyon and the gale
Can speed rot to my distant sail:
Afar upon the voyage of life,
l take my chosen course alone
cannot tel what storms are rife,
Or where my vessel may be thrown:
Yet now bvelier light appears
Than that we quenched in parting tears!
