And strained my wild ear 10 thy hssting heart
But lis music still beat. eve must part we must

1 have heard thy voice SO low and so sweet,
have gazed on the hues of thy changing cheek,
have looked in the depths Of thy hazel eye
The angels we're calling thee home to the sky.

through bs
All laden with perfume and starry with dew,
And the moonbeams smiled up through gold
That sleep on thy cheek like the star-gems Of old
