"Thou shalt not rob me, Ihievish Time,
OF all my blessings, all my joy:
have some jewels in my heart
Which thou art powerless TO destroy"
Sunny ewes may lose their brightness;
Nim6le feet forget their lighness;
Pearly teeth may know decay;
Raven tresses turn 10 gray;
Cheeks be pale aud eyes be dim;
Faint the voice and weak the limb;
But though youth and strength depart,
Fadeess is loving heart.
Like the little mountain flower,
Peepng forth IN wintry hour,
When the summers breath is fled,
And the gaudier howerets dead;
So when outward charms are gone,
Brighter still doth blossom on,
Despite of Times destroying dart,
The gentle, kindly loving heart.
Wealth and talents viii avail
When on lle's rough sea we sail;
Yet the wealth may melt like SNOW,
: And the wit no longer glow;
But more smooth we'll ind the sea,
And our course the fairer be,
II our pilot, when we start,
BE kindly loving heart.
Ye in worldly wisdom Old
Ye who bow the knee TO gold,
Doth this earth as lovely seem,
Al i; did in life's young dream,
Ere the world had ctusted u'er,
Feelings good and pure before
Ele We sold to Maumon's mart
The best yeanings Of the heart?
Grant me, Heaven, my earnest prayer
Whether life OF ease or Gaze
BE the one to me assigned,
That each coming year may find
Loving thoughts and gentle words
Twiued within my bosnm's chords,
And that age may but impar
Ripper freshness to my heart!
