Oh! how shall the tear forget
That from thy cheek kissed away?
We parted-many look cast,
To see thee lingering on the hill;
Then far from home and thee Ipass'd.
Yet staid in spirit with thee still.

And though my locks are scattered now,
And Time, yet on his softest wing,
Will touch thy crimson cheek with snow
And though our early hope be gone,
And life with slower pulses move
Come to my heart till life is done
