Hur Childhood.

lis sHl-yct swcct-to listen
To the soft winds gentle swell,
And think We hear the music
Our childhood knew so wcll.
To gaze out in the even.
And the bounIless fields of air.
Aud feel again my childhood wish
70 roam like angels there!
There are many dreams Of gladnoss
That cling around the past
And from the tomb of feeling
Old thoughts come throngng fast
The forms we loved so dearly.
In tn" happy days now gone,
The beautiful and lovely,
SO fair to look upon.
Those bright and lovely maidcns
Who seemed SO formed for bliss,
Too glorious and too heavenly
For such n world rs this!
Whose soft dark eyes seemed swimming
In n sea of liquid light,
Whose locks of gold We're streaming
Ger brows SO sunny bright.
Whose smiles We're like the sunshine
In the spring-time Of the year
Like the clangcful CLEANS of April,
They follow every tear!
They have passc'l-lille hope-aw ay-
All the lovclincSs has fled
Oh manya IL heart is mourning
That they are with the dead
Like the bright buds of summer,
They have fallen from the stcm-
Yet oh--it is n lovely death
To fade from earth like them! 90
And yet the thought is saldening
To muse OH such rs they
And feel that all the beautiful
Are passing fast away!
That the fair ones whom we love,
Grow to each loving breast,
Like tendrils of the living vine,
Then perish where they rest.
And can we but think of these
In the soft and gentle spring,
When the trees are waving DER us,
And the flowers are b'os<oming,
For We know that winters coming,
With its cold and stormy sky
And the glorious beauty round us
Is blooming but to die.
