LINES
Respectfully dedicated to Miss S. C. Whitt!esey
the Bard Of Alexandra.
You ''love the pure. the truo the free"-
For this. my heart has long loved thee.
Methinks, dear Lady, were bound
To some lone isle, where not "A sound
Of loving tones, could reach mine ear,
To tell my heart. still was dear,
Methinks, then, in that hour I'd turn
And quaf the drops from Memory'S Urn"
Until. as in thy "Tale of Dreams"
A loving being near would seem,
"Her small hands" mid my '.jetty hair"
Like white doves revelling mid despair"
"The breath of Love-" I'd then inhsle,
Until within that lovely vale,
Each "Home Affection" would entwine,
Aud draw me TO my Parent-yine;
THAT Home," which could not dearer be,
Were every gem of earth and sea
Amassed 10 decorate its halls,
Than are those high old yaulted walls.
Forgive me, Lady, if ask
A gift that would not prove task
For thee to give; and it would bring
To one whom thou wouldst deem Boy
A Boy whom thou hast never seer,
Tho he has often near thee been,
And whilst his bounding heart grew glad,
Reprcssed his glee to see thee sad.
The Gift is this: I'd hear thee say:
"God bles. thee, wanderer, on thy ray"
oh breathe that kindly prayer for me-,
Who soon must wander far from thee.
Alexandria, Va. ARTHUR W. II.

TO ARTHUR,

God bless thee Bard, who lowest me,
Through Time and all Eternity!
May every hope thy heart shall know,
In brilliant realization glow
May Angels guard thy peaceful way,
From sin and sorrow, al ites day
May every bud of promise bloom,
Here, and beyond the jar-cf tomb!
