Fair as the fairest flower,

Forth from affections bower,
Borne on the Angel wing,
Glided her spirit lightly,
Lovely and young and fair,
With the red on her lip vet brightly
And The glow on her golden hair
Earth fwineth her grave with myrtle,
And gemmeth with pearly dew
Each spray of that shining kirtIe,
And bloom Of the violet blue. 49,.
Yet she waketh her not from that sleepius,
Unfolding her gently there,
And tenderiy, earth is keeping,
Those ireUes of gold N hair.
