To see the bride as she passes by;
Ring soft and low, ring loud and clear,
Ye Ginning bells that swing on high!
Look look! she comes The air grows

And the flowers she trcads beneath her feet
Die in food Of rare perfumes
She comes she comes The happy bells
With their joyous clamor fill the xir.
While the great organ dies AMI swells,
Soaring to trembling heights Of prayer !.
Oh rare are her robes Of silken sheen,
And the pearls that glcam on her bosom

But rare. TIE grac' Of her royal men,
Her hairs fine gold, and her cheeks

Fresh as violet dewy sweet,

For Love hath shielded her; Honor kept

And Evil out from her sight hath crept,
Trailing its slow length far away.

In all the wealth other sraschless charms,
Lovely and beautiful. pure and good,
