THE EARLY BLEST.


pY AMANDA R. DAVIS.
had once darling cousin,
Lovely as an opening flower,
Gentle as the bre ath of even,
In sume distant southern bower.
Purer was she than the snow fake,
Falling OH the mountains crest,
Or the snow-wlite water-lily,
Sleeping on the lakelet's breast.
Modest us the sweet spring violet,
Dropping its green leaves beneath
She was truly May blossom,
Wthered by september's breath.
Eye she had of soitest hazel,
Full Of earnest truth and love,
In whose depths the soul seemed mirrored'
Ripening for its home above.
And her voice, e'en now hear it,
sweety sing, The Happy Land"
As.she sang ere yet her spirit
Joined in Heaven the angel band
As she lay within the coffin,
ROBBED in beauty for the grave,
Round her lips smile seemed gathering,
Life such beauty never gave.
That faint smile, it seemed a token,
Sweet, though silent, from the Lord,
OF pure bliss, for aye unbroken,
On her sinless spirit poured.
sleeps she now in yonder church-yard;
Cold the snow -wreaths DER her tomb
But Aimira, bright in beauty,
Lives where flowers forever bloom,
