Have served il well TO prolong its days.
For years Il has stood in that quiet spot;
improvements thicken-it heeds them not
The rose and the clemats twine and grow
In tender embrace DER the portico,
And the drowsy hum OF the bee Is heard.
Or the restless wing of the humming bird,
while the robin sits on q neiehbcripg limb,
And psuses to gaze at them both as ne eats
What q puzzle Il always must be to him
To see them slipping invisible sweets.
I've watched him oft in the cherry tree,
Reflecting-what manner Of bird they could be.
Broad naples stand, as II on guard,
By the side OF the house, In the little yard;
And the fence In front can scarce be seen
For the blossoming shrub and the evergreen,
While close by the gate, sad vigil keeping,
The willow weeps-she is always weeping
And trembling there in the passing breeze
The most timid of all the surrounding trees.
There viii come time when the leaves have
passed,
When the branches shrink from the wintry blast,
when the humming birds and the bees are ned,
When rose and clemstis both are dead,
Or sleep till the vernal trump IS heard
In the clear soft note of the singing bird.
There will come Q time when trees and flowers
Shall be numbered ell with the ghostly hours
That roam in their shrouds of hopes and fears,
Through the cstacombs Of the buried years
The hours of pleasure--the hours of pain
That have gone and can never return again.
Ah, what shall protect the old house then
From the vulgar gaze OF heartless men,
Loi there spreads cen now DER that sscret
spot
| 'Tis glorious growth an immortal tree,
| And lis neme-it's name ID Memory.
| Its root lies deep in the hallowed past;
| And close round the house its arms are cast,
| While sorrows and joys flock lovingly there,
| like summer birds fitting 70 and fro
/ From branch 10 branch, as they fill the air
/ With the dear old songs Of long ago.
And that tree shall wave-those birds shall sing
| Through many winter and many spring,
! when The eve Of sense may look in vain
| For the Old Brown House in the grassy lane.
