the WITnERED WREATH

THE WITH Erred WREAT II
All remember long ago,
When clothed in summer pride,
saw these faded how'rcts blow,
In beauty, side by side,
Dews clustered on each fragrant stem,
Lit by the mornings ray,
As if, by Nature dadem,
They grew beside the way.
Tho Tiny hand that culcd lhcA, then,
With souI-rovlving mirh,
We'll never weave their like again
Upon this lovely earth;
Fo,, in the cold and silent tomb,
That infan; form is laid,
Where favorite wild.buds er her bloom,
And green shrubs cast ;her shade
And though this wreath that once so gay
Adorned her unseLhrow,
Alike herself hath died away,
HIcthnks l see her now,--
lAbr ighter chapet round her hair
OF Howcrs.that cannot die,
by seraphs wove from Loves parlerre,
In paradise on high.
Poor withered wreath this coskct still
Thy fragrant dust shall keep
Remembrance Oft with hopes TO fiji,
And lure my thoughts to weep
To weep, yet not in wild despair,
For loss Of her love;
But, rather, thatl soon may wear
a crown with her above.
