"Lostr didI say my hope was lost 2
Yes, but does every one Know its cost?
That hope "gone down at sear' r
No they think twas sod to see il go, r
They could not feel all the hedpy ,cOe,
The dying away silently
I set sometimes and wonder blndly-
Think and ponder oyer.it dreariy-

Aud wonder if it will come no more
Count the days that have gone before
And think ii folly 10 rdpine.

In the heart that is now of it bercft; aa '-
Once with il, beating so Strongi
How it rose and rose that hop Of mine,
a Till it in my soul did burn and shine
Till it broke forth in song. Ta
How it glowed and burned there too,
Chamingmy 'cold heart through and through
Till it grew "hopc divine!'
| cared not for the clouds o'erhead,
For ii was not then broken and dead
That hope-that nope OF mne
But its earthly glory began to fade,
And soon know it must be laid
Meath the folds of dark despair;
wtpt oer its graUe bRt what good came?
Icould only luy it beside one name,
And heart-grief f. ~rthcr spare.
Oil but long to be buck oacemore,
Beside that dreamy, pleasant lie-slore,
BY which that hope was ledl
But in udi,i-the name is folded away
The hOpe'is lost amid shodDws gray e, .,
The name and hope, both deadi
Then shall watch for ii to come once more,
When know titles with wrecks on shore
Wrecks OF hopes and dreams of earth
No one knew what il cost to throw away,
That which made lfe then but one bright Nay
Only kne0 us great tcorth!
