Alas! thy smilesehall l ne'er see,
NJ more thy voice hear?
Those smiles were wont to comfort me,
That voice my heart to cheer.
How pleasant was our humble hene
When thou vast with me here!
was as when sweet flowers bloom,
When singing birds hear.
Why didst thou 90 away 80 soon,
And leave thy happy homer
Why did thy sun gO down ut noon,
And leave thy wife in gioomP
i know it was thy country's call
Which sent thee far away;
II was for her thou gav'st up ALL
Zen loves soft sunny ray.
Though thou to me canst ne er return,
Yet to thee go
Where no bright sun goes down at noon,
Where tears will cease to flow.
Now, till that brght-that happy day,
thee must bid adieu; .
A while in this dark vale stay, ---.
Then STALL 60 to you. -
There war shall ne'er part US again, -.
- In thst bright world on high; ....
There will sweet peace forever reign,
Aud love shall never die
