Whera 6r. all his sorrows now!
Could thew leave his heart IA quickly
As the gloom clouds lett his brow
Tp the green slope OF his garden,
Past the dial, he saw run.
Three young girls, with bright eyes shining
Like their brown heads in the sun:
There WAS Fanny, famed for wisdom;
And fair Alice, famed for pride;
And one that could say, "Cucle,'
And said little eise beside.
And that vision startled memories,

Sending floods Of hallow'd sunshine
Through the ragged rents OF lille.
Then they took him from his study,
Through long lanes aud tangled bowers.

And he bless'd their merry voices,
Singing round him as he went:
For the sight Of their wild gladness
Fill'd his own heart with content.

And old woods in which he wanderd,
