might forget thine eyes soft light
With lapse OF feeting years,
Forget that love look, warm and bright,
Which flashed through happy tears.
might forget the blush that stole
In welcome to thy cheek
The smile revealing to my soul
The Joy thou would st not speak.
Imieht forget thy graceful mien,
Thy motion light as air
I've thought thine angel wings unseen,
Thou still on earth didst wear!
might forget thy beauty rare,
OF form. and soul, and heart,
Let memory perish with this truth,
We dweH fore er apar9
But, all! thy voice-its liquid tone
Ave ripples on mine ear
cannot choose but list, my own,
For life is not more dear!
hear it at the morning BRIGHT
And through the busy day
mid grief and care, its whispers light
Make music round my way.
TITS breathing at the twilight hour
Some sad, beloved strain,
That with wild, reslstless power,
Brings back she pastragalnr
Ii comes with midnights starry CLEANS,
1t mingles in my prayer
Its echo fingers on my Dreams
'Tis with me everywhere!
'Twere vain, beloved, to say forget
Since memory knows but thee
And in the futures far heaven set,
Thy star alone see!
Would DER life's wave my bark might glid
In the breath of loves sweet cline,
While to thy voice, my love, my BRIDE,
The listening oars keep time!
