muse Of days cEanished long,
Whose suns, alas, are set!
Bat Ley are dear to me and song,
And live in memory yet.
Yes. OF at midnight's hour dream,
Forgetting care, and toll and pain,
AS brilliant stars Of memory CLEAN
FROM the dead past's dim arcane.
-Its night, Defenders wind sweeps by,
And like some stricken mourner grieves--
And sounds like some weird spirits sigh
As it fingers round the caves
And now dream of that sweet time
when earth seemed gay as bowers in June,
When life seemed pure as fautIess rhyme
Which Hope and Joy both sang il tune.
When loved bright-eyed maiden
With love than none less true
One fair as flowers OF Aidcnn
LaTcd with morning dew.
Whose smile was like the sunshine
On the sky of May
And l0nged to say its light was mine
10 chase life's gloom away.
How earnestly tried my art
10 win prize so fair.--
But, if Alright | read her heart,
reused no feeling there.
She often sweetly spake to me
In such bewildering tone,
| halt-nclped to think that she
Would some day be my own
But she shared in youth the common fate
Leaving world of care and sin
And heaven ne'er ope'd its pcarly gate
To let loveher angel in
Dear Memory is fond and kind.
And bringeth back her voices tone.
Which is music OF the mind,
As | walk the world QL0ne
