eyes and Il big lum, in my thoracic
elongation cytcnliny between the
head and shoulders, ! thought Of us
as walking apart forever and wav-
ing our hands in mute GlrcwelP' as
wc should speed out lonely paths,
thro' mist, and cloud. and gloom TO
meet no more :" But, oh " hat Il
pang shot through every fibre Of my
sensitive organization rs the image
flashed through my excited brain Of
his "cycs Of passion'css, peaceful
blue, like twilight which faint stars
gaze through smiling in tender Joy
upon another girl All | was in

supreme agony, | forced myself t,

such feelings, and as I'm afraid of
stcrcotyped topics, | had to fall back
on my own resources; however,
