TO a responding husband:
Welded LOVE.
Come, rouse thee, dearest-'tis not we'll
To let the spirit brood
Thus darkly DER the cares that swell
LIES current TO a flood;
As brooks and torrents, rivers. all,
Increase the gul phi in which they fall.
Such thoughts, by gathering up the rils
OF lesser grief spread real ills;
And with their gloomy shades conce |
The landmarks hope would still reveal.
Come, rouse thee now!I know thy mind,
And would its strength awaken;
Proud, gifted, noble. ardent. kind
Strange thou should be thus shakeni
But rouse afresh each energy.
And be what heaven intended thee,
Throw from thy thought this weary weigh
And prove thy spirit firmly great;
] would not see thee bend below
The angry storms of earthly wo.
Full well ! know thy generous soul
Which warns thee into life.
Each spring which can IFS powers control,
Familiar to thy wife;
For deem'st thou she could stoop to bind
Her fate unto a common mindl
The eagle-like ambition nursed
From childhood in her heart had first
Consumed with its promethean flame
The shrine that sunk her so 10 shame.
Then. rouse thee, dearest! from the dream
That letters now thy powers;
Shake off this gloom-Hope sheds a beam
To gid each cloud which lowers;
And though at present seems so far,
The wished-for goal, the guiding star,
With peaceful ray would light thee on,
Until its bond be won,
That quenchless ray. thou'lt ever prove,
A fond, undying, welded LOVE!
