MOST AFFECTIONATELY INSCRIBED II
MISS LUE M. rs,
OF BRUNSWICK, MISSOURI.
We met, Lue on old Virginia's shore,
The parting must be pain.
We hold the mystic key of hearts,
When shall we meet again
Oh welcome to my mountain home
And to the dancing streamlets flow,
And welcome to its pine clad hills,
Wherr played long ago.
Though Hover and stream are not to me
What they were in the days Of yore.
Ere the roses withered in my heart
On old Virginia's shore.
For then loved dark haired lad,
and the fowerets seemed SO fair
As wove them into garlands
To Irvine in my brown hair
Now my life's dream is over,
And I'm waiting evermore,
For my lost love is sleeping
On old Yirginia's shore.
trembling chord within my heart
Vibrated to thine own,
And photographed with magic art
On memory's throne.
Two spirits blepded into one;
A living likeness bore,
When we clasped hands 80 cordially,
On old Virginia's shore.
And now we part, and dust to dust
May have returned where we have lain,
Ere in the beauteous spirit-hand
Our hands shall clasp again.
