That doth not In thy sphere abide;
Haunt OF my heme-bred symPathies,
NY own-my own-my own nresloe:
gentle form Is near me now;
"A small white hand is claSped In mine;
4 gaze upon her placid brow,
And ask, what joys can equal thine!
A babe, whose beauties half divine,
In sleep his mothers eyes doth hide;
Where MAJ Love seek a litter shrine
Than thou, my own treside.
NJ refuge ever from the storm
OF this worlds passion, strife aad care;
Though thunder clouds the skies deform,
Their fury cannot reach me there:
There is all cheerful, ca m and fair;
Wrath, Envy, Malice, Strife or Pride
hath Fever made Its hated lair
BY thee-my own 1residel
Shrine Of nv household dsities.
Bright scene Of homes unsullied joys:
To thee my burdered spirit flies
When Fortune frowns, or Care annoys,
Thine Is the bliss that never clogs;
The smile whose truth has oft BEEN tried;
What. then, are this worlds tinssl TOYS
To thee-my own Preside
Oh, may tie yearnings, fond and sweet,
That bid my thong hts be all Of thee,
Thus ever guide my wandering fest
To thy he Irt-soothing sanctuary,
Whate'er my future ysaes may be,
Let Joy or grief my fate betids,
Be still an Eden bright to me,
Ny own-my own Preside.
