GLESLY MOOR. RI ALICE eAar,.

The summers golden glow was fled.
In ewes dim arms the day lay dead,
And Ger the dreary woodland Wild "
The first pale star looked out, and smiled
On Glen1y Moor. Si 's
Nor lonely call Of lingering birtl,
Nor insects cheerful hum, was heard
Nor traveller, at the close Of day,
Singing along the grass-grown way
OF Glenly Moor.
No voice was in the sleepy rills,
No light shone down the village hills,
And, withered on their blackened stalks.
Hung the last flowers along the walks
Of Glenly Moor.
Within thin, cold drift of light,
The wild rose berries still hung bright,
Where broken turf and new-set stone
Told of a pale one left alone
+ In Glenly Moor
All the clear splendor of the skies
Was gathered from her love-lit eyes,
And therefore shadows, dark and cold,
Hung over valley, hill and void,
In Glenly Moor.
And the winged morning, from the blue
Wsnnowing the crimson on the dew,
May ne'er unlock the hands so white
That lie beneath that drift of light
In Glenly Moor.
