OF Departed ErIends.

Full many tear ana many a sigh,
We shed, alas . for those who die,
Snatched from us by some cruel doom,
Ere youth had ripened into bloom.
And wherefore should we bid them STAY,
To lnger on weary way,
Through the false world, where power and glory
Are shadows vain and transitory7
Nature her brightest beams hath made
Soonest to be o'ercast with shade;
Her sweetest fragrance, too, is given,
But to be eXhaled and borne to HEAVIER
Better by far their guilt sleep,
Than like VI, to wake and weep
As on our pilgrimage we go
In sorrow through this world of woe

There from the day god we will seek the arcade,
Which oil Jessemne blossoms thine hand hath made,
Al eve we VIII roam when the moons on the tide
She rules 1t as thou shalt rule when my bride
Oh cruel the fate, love- that you and would sever
But do Fortune as she will-Ah I'll forget thee never
But the moon is on the sea, love-
The moon is on the tide,
AM I'll follow thee, love,
For all the world beside.
My bonnie boat is moored awaiting for my bride,
The sivery moon is shining on the silvery tide.
The moon is on the sea- love,
The moon is on the tide
Oh. will you follow me, love,
For all the world beside
Hark the alarm bell is ringing, the armed host is near
Who with ruthless hand would sever her lover from his
dear.
While the moon is the sea- love-
The moon is on the tide,
Fly! Oh! fly with me, love,
And become my happy bride
Haste then let US fly love- while the the sea-
To my ocean home love- where shall rule but thee
The moon is on the sea, love,
The moon is on the tide,
Then follow follow me, love-
