TO IS DOR E

v S A O v H 6 Through life I'd wandered sad and lone, without
 one star to bless; With lambent beam the spirits gloom amid will
 derness: For every hope that, meteor-like. upon my pathway
 shone, Had left deeper shade of tbought-a sadness not
 mine own,
 Until that eve met thee, Isadore. When music from the halls of mrth swept out
 upon the air To mingle with the perfume sent gom early spring
 flowers there, In search of some bright dream went amid the
 jewellers gay, Twas there met that face of thine which changed
 the night to day,
 And saw to love thee first. sweet Isadore, Unheeded was the merry dance, when you
 passed along, Like fair Diana or the note of some wild mountain
 song; Your step was music to my ear your form of mai
 den pride, Was like midnight's summer dream of some fair
 spirit bride,
 Or seraph floating by, bright Isadore An. well do remember now, thy brow as lilies fair, Der which in wayy clusters fell wealth of raven
 hair; Inwoy there n hyacnth, so pure, and chaste and
 whte Hung trembling like holy nun who fills some
 pious rite,
 Or like thy own, pure, angel self, Isadore! know not if some happier hand plucked it from
 out thy hair, When last l saw thee floating by it hung noeauty
 there; Perhaps some lover by thy side walked meath the
 stars that night And bore away that trophy flower In triumph ana
 delight;
 I dared not ask it of thee, Isadore, But still felt within my soul if love could giyca
 right, Ny bosom should have rather borne the gem of And thanked be loving memory, though lost was beauty's prize, Yet deep within my faithful heart the fow'rets image lies, With thine forever blended, Isadore! And life since then has been to me not unwel come dream; Since then amid the summer flowers Pye seen thy soft eyes beam, And fairer seem they to my gaze than when by chance we met; What have l. save thy coldness now, to fill me with regret2 Life has no fairer vision, Isadore. In all the lonely hours of night upon thy charms muse, And dreams fall softly oermy soul, like Hermon's gentle dews, And will you such faith requite with smiles thrown away, On those who prize you not so high, or loveyou to 1 betray? 1 - Say will thy heart throb truly, 1sadore?
