1t Might Have Been.

II might have been, it might have been
If you and I had met
In that sweet bloom-time Of youth
That lies behind regret.
We arc not old our hearts are warm;
The Rubiccn's not passed,
Full fifty times its tides may Tow
Ere we shall count the last;
But let them rise or let them fall or 'c' '"e"'
drain the sea, ,,h., osr,, -,
cannot be-
What puerdon waits, what record stances
Bevond those lesden skies,
We nav not CLASP with human hands,
Nor read with human eyes.
Be ours tho task, with courage steelcd,
To grid its armor on,
For only on the battle field
HAY battle wreaths BIO won.
But should we stand, or should we fall. 70 re-
cresnt spirits wo.
Nor word nor tone must cor recall what can
not, cannot DO.
Then lot us meet and part as those
Whose hopes can never glide
On summer days, through sunny ways,
Joy freighted, side By side;
As those VINO count the might havo been
But one link in the chain
That lesds to Eden paths beyond
This labyrinth of pain.
But let the pillows rise and fall upon the change
less sea-
Nor sigh nor tear must cor recall what cannot,
cannot be.
