Resplendent hues are thine

Burdening with | owe the hearts pure shrine,
Till tears afford relief.
What tho thy depths be hushed!
More eloquent in bTeathless silence thou,
Than when the music of glad son gsteIs gushed
From every green-robed bough.
Gone from thy walks the fowersl
Thou askest not their forms thy path to flock =
The dazzling radiance of these ssnlit bowers
Their hues could not bedeck.
| love thee in the Spring,
Earlh-crowning forest! when amid thy shades
The gentle South first waves her odorous wing,
And Joy fills ell thy glades.
In the hot Summer time,
With deep delight thy sombre aisles roam,
Or, soothed by somc cool brooks delicious chime
Rest on thy verdant loan.
But o, when Autumn's hand
Hath marked thy beautious foliage for the grave,
How doth thy splendor as entranccd | stand,
My willing heart enslayel
Ilinger then with thee,
Like some fond lover o'erhis stricken bride;
Whose bright unearthly beauty tells that she
Here may not long abide.
When MY last hours are come,
Great God ere yet life'S span shall all be filled,
And these waIm lips in death beever dumb,
This beating heart be stilled,-
BlIhe thou il hues as blest-
Let glsans Of Heaven about my split play:
so shall my soul to its eternal rest,
In glory pass away.
