 In flashes shone
 Soft eyes upon: Where. 0 where are lips and eyes. The maiaen's smile. the lOver's sighs, That were so long agOi Who peopled all the city's streets A hundred years sgol Who filled the church with faces meek A hundred years sgol
 The sneering tale
 Of sister frai,
 The plot that worked
 Another's hurt: Where, o where are plots and sneers. The poor mans hopes, the rich man fears, That were so long age' Where are the graves where dead men slept A hundred years sgol Who. while living, of. times wePt, A hundred years agOl
 By other men
 They knew not then
 Their lands are titled,
 Their homes arc filled: Yet nature then was just gay, And bright the sun shcne as to-day, A hundred years ago.
