04 4AWAh0s In the mingled cup of Life, Sparkles vivid Joy, Rinmed with Loves, in mimic strife Chasing maidens coy.
 Sparkling, bending,
 But misleading
 The unheeding. Are ho sweets without alloy !?
 II. Open through youths sunny years, V,stas of delight: Open.-but our blinding tears. Dim the giaddened sight; And, we borrow
 From tomorrow,
 Shades of sorrow, Deepening into early night. Thirs,ing from Lifr's treacherous cup, Would the heart despair But fountain welleth up In the desert ,here.
 Singing, leaping,
 With unsleeping,
 Angels keeping Time the while they fan the air. Where that liquid silvery shaftl Spirit, would'st thou know? 'Tis where heavenly breathings wait Fragrance as they go;
 Heaven-descending Z-phyrs, blending
 Life intending. With the sweetness of their flow.
 V. Ask where s,raigh, and far the path Tends from earth to sky: Here, cross Tor goal it hath, There, a crown on high.
 Wcndtous grouping Der that dropping
 Seal's-pa.h s,oopiag, God and angels linger nigh.
