MEMORIE !.

Many the thoughts they bring
This sunny lock Of hair.
This severed lock. and this little ring,
My own love used TO wear.
They cut this shining curl
From my lost darling's head;
They took this hoop OF gold and pearl
From the fingers of the dead.
Down in the old churchyard
They laid my maiden sweet
With marble cross her head to guard, /,
And rosc-trce at her feet.
But though she's sleeping there,
lW not of all bercil--
Although she's gone the dear and fair,
Still have something left,
She's gone from my embrace,
Yet treasures three have J.
The golden ring, and the waving tress,
And a sweet, sweet memory.
