THE DAHL YTTMES
OUR CHILDHOOD.
BIZ GEORGE D. PRENTICE.

ObIb Will Df1OOD.
BIZ GEORGE d. PRENTICE
IT'S sad, yet sweet, to listen
To the soft winds gentle swell
And think we hear the music
Our childhood knew so well,
To gaze out ON the even,
And the boundless fields of air,
And feel again our boyhood's wish
70 roam, like angels there
There are many dreams of gladness
That cling around the past
And from the tomb of feeling
Old thoughts come thronging fast
The forms we loved SO dearly
In the happy days now gone,
The beautiful and lovely,
So fair to look upon.
Those bright and gentle mailens,
w ho seemed so formed for bliss,
Too glorious and too heavenly
For such world as this
Whose dark soft eyes seemed swimming
In sea ofliquid light;
And whose locks of gold were streaming
Der brows so sunny bright.
Whose smiles were like the sunshine
In thu spring time of the year.
Like the changeful CLEANS of April,
They followed every tear!
They have passed, like home, away
All their loneliness has fled
Oh many heart is mourning
That they are with the dead
Like the brightest buds of summer
They have fallen from the stem;
Yet oh! it is lovely death
To fade from earth like them!
And yet, the thought is saddening
To muse on such as they.
And feel that all the beautiful
Are passing fast away!
Thntthe fair ones whom we love.
Grow to each loving breast
Like tendrils of the clinging vine;
Then perish where they rest.
And can we but think of these
In the soft and gentle spring,
When the trees are waving o err us,
And the flowers are blossoming?
For we know that winters coming
With his cold and stormy sky
And the glorious beauty round US
Is building but to die !
