WE NET To PART roREvER.

nv KISS JuttA rtNA-ANtS.
We met-twas when her silver chain.
Tho midnight moon was ~eaving
Across a darkly rolling plain
or waters wildly heasing;
Our hearts were not more still and calm,
Than was that roaring river,
For Ne bad sung Life's morning Psalm,
Aud meI-to part forever.
There waved a bcauteous forests
Beneath that moru's illuming,
but sorrow, In our sandaltrer,
Her axe had been pertaining:
And sadly gazcd We on the grove
Which girt that foaining river,
And mounied to think with all our love,
We met to part forever.
The Nightingale flung on the breeze
Her richest vocal treasure,
But grief, on LifcIs low minor KEYS,
Had struck mournful measure,
Aud coldly fell the night birds song,
We could but weep aud SILVER,
To think our broken hearts were strong,
To meet aud part forever.
The dew fell on the blooming vines,
Our sylvan bower, that shaded,
But in our spirits shattered shrines,
The rose OF lnve was faded.
Youths golden dew, which bathed II crest,
Again, would battle il never.
And only blShting icardrvps burst
To meet aud part forever.
The archer stars sat on the skv,
Their silver arrows glancing
Against each wave, that shouted by,
To oceans waste advancing.
But We had felt the poisoned darts
From criol's cNhaustlcss CULVER
They ranked in the wriIhing hearts,
That met TO part forever.
It's many year since there We met,
And sorrows have numbered,
But bitterer brine hath never yet,
Ny faded check encunbercd.
Aud memory, like "a guilty Spritc,
Sill hauuts that lone " river,
Where in the moons unclOuled light,
We met To part forever.
