NV midnight dreams are all OF thee,
For nature then in silence sleeps,
And silence broods Ger land and sea;
Oh, in that still mysterious hour,
How oft from waking dreams start,
To find thee but a fancy flower,
Thou cherished idol ofmY heart.
Thou hast each thought and dream of mine
Have ! in turn one thought OF timer
Forever thine my dreams will be,
Whate'er may be my fortunes here,
/ ask not love-I claim from thee
Only one boon, a gentlete a
Nav e'er blest visions from above
Play brightly round thy happy heart,
And may the beams of peace and love
Ne'er from thy glowing soul depart.
Farewell! my dreams are still with thee,
Hast thou one tender thought Of me?
NV Joys, like summer birds, may fly,
My hopes, like summer blooms, depart,
But there's one flower that cannot die,
Thy holy memory in my heart:
No dews that one flowers cup may fill,
No sunlight to its leaves be given,
But it will live and flourish still,
As deathless as a thing of heaven.

Farewell! FAREWELL my far-off friend!
Between us broad, blue rivers flow,
And forests wave and plains extend,
And mountains in the sunlight glow;
The wind that brcathes upon thy brow
Is not the wind that breathes on mine,
The star beams shining on thee now
Are not the beams that on me shine;
But memory's spell is with me yet
Can'st thou the holy past forget?
The bitter tears that thou and |
May shed whene'er my anguish bowed,
Exhaled into the noontide sky,
May meet and mingle in the cloud:
And thus, my much beloved friend, tho We
Far, far apart must live and move,
Our souls when God shall set them free,
Can mingle in the world of love.
This was an ecstacy to me
Say-would it be a Joy to thee?
