THE TN
an OLDEN ECHO.
BY wM. L. KEEsE.

l saw her to-day in the crowded street,
On the arm Of man of gold:
Still regaly beautiful-still rs sweet
As she was in the days of old.
Yet Fashion swept brilliantly by unseen,
The exquisite oglcd in vain;
No glance left the eyes Of the splendid queen,
Unless loaded with cold disdain.
a change has come over the lady, then,
A change which is travail offlames-
She is sick of homage from brainless men,
And the gossip of soulless danes.
l marked the lines on her dignified face
twas smoother year ago;
No eyes save mine saw the terrible trace,
Chisselled only by tears, l know.
She lives in the house of millionaire,
In parlors with luxury CLOSED
There are diamond pins that she may wear,
There are dresses of royal cost.
Rich revels will rise at her sweet command
Her partner will never say nay;
Yet she seems to shrink from the golden hand
Which she swore to love and obey.
Perhaps she remembers the by gone years,
When her home was poorer than now
When smiles were the victOrs instead Of tears,
And comfort the victor of show;
When the morning sun from the country skies
Softly fell on her sleeping face,
Instead OF the blaze in her weary eyes,
And the glare on her gown of lace.
Perhaps she remembers the birds clear song,
Instead Of the opera stall;
Or the brook where she sat SO oft and long,
In love for its silver fall.
Perhaps she remembers the May day dance,
In the place of the midnight waltz
And hand which fell over hers by chance
Rough, heavy, aud brown-not false
She may have thought of the past so sweet,
When her heart and hand were free
thought of the man who fell at her feet
Meath the shade of an old oak tree
She thinks of promise she made to one,
Who was hers in the days of old;
And she thinks ofwhat she has lost and won,
As she walks with the man Of gold.
