she clung to him with woman's love,
Like ivy to On oak;
While o'er his head with crushing force,
Earth's chilling tempests broke.
When the world looked cold on him,
And blight hung o'er his name
Shs sooth'd his care with woman's love;
And bade him him rise again.
when care had furrow'd o'er his face,
And clouded his young hours,
shs wovs among his crown ofthorns,
A wreath Of loves own Aowers.
And never did that wreath decay,
Or one bright Aowfst wither;
For woman's tears ever nourished them,
That they might bloom forever.
,Tis ever thus with woman's love,
True till life's storms have passed;
And, like the vine around the tree,
Il braves them till the last.
