LO NC AGO

LONG AGO.
Long Ago. when those we loved
With us were dwelling here:
The fond, the faithful, and the proved,
The loving and the dear;
Our brothers as the lion brave,
Our sisters very fair
Lang ago. when hearts were light,
Untouched by aught of woe
When on US beamed blue eyes most bright,
In youth and beauty's glow;
And little deem'd of the coming night,
And the strength so soon lald low
Long ago. when our grandam sat
Within her stately chair,
And told to US the tragic tale,
OF Lord Edmund and his heirs
\ 1t made our very cheeks turn pale,
And our hearts beat quick with Tear.
Long ago. when in the church,
Our village church, We prayed;
Where painted windows made gloom,
ana Threw u gOlutiI SHouS
Upon full many a sculptured tomb,
Where our ancestors were laid.
Long ago when the old hall
Was Joyous place to see,
With It's carved porcn, and It's chlmneys tall
With their antique tfaceryi
And the IVY green, that used to tatl,
Ger all as canopy.
Long ago. when as yet our hearts
Were free from the brand OF sin,
And we did not strive with grasplnG hano'
7 High place IN the world to wln'
But afar off, joyously did stand,
Nor seek an entrance in.
e Long ago. oh mournful words!
MY eyes grow dim with 'ears'
!. And heavily-rcpnlngly,
n NV heart its sorrow bears;
AsI ,l,;nk on The change that has fallen OF
Since those happy and guileIess years
Blu, oh bear up "a time shall come,
When once more shall kno"
Peace, rest, and silence, cv'n when | seer
In my humble grave below;
And no more dream in my sluMbcf deep'
O.. the days Of Long Ago
