Tin response to her stanzas, any Husband.1
What maiden, in the days of yore,
Smote me with most tremendous power,
Infiicting pangs unknown before?-
My wife.
Who pitied me in my distress,
And, by one simple little "Yes,"
Changed all my woe to blessedness?-
My wife.
Who did, with look almost divine,
My soul In cords OF love entwine,
And gave her priceless heart for miner
My wife.
Who. since to the altar led
My blushing bride, and VOWS were said,
Has naught but blessings round me shed?-
My wife.
Who, in our pilgrimage below,
Has cheered with smiles the passage through,
And ever faithful proved and true?-
My wife.
When pressed with sorrow, toll and cares,
Who all my grief and trouble shares,
And half, at least, my burden bears?-
My wife.
When tempests rage and pillows roll,
And human passions spurn control,
Who Gains the tumult OF my SOul?-
My wife.
When storms are hushed and skies are bright,
And shadows dark are changed TO light,
Who joys with me In sweet delight
My wife.
Who was in youth, tn admired of men;
But now, at three score years and ten,
Is tar more beautiful than them
My wife.
As down LIES rugged steep 60,
With careful, trembling steps and slow,
Who clIngs to me and helps me Thought
My wife.
Who. when my toilsome days are DER
VIII meet me on blest Canaan's shore,
And sing with me forevermore?-
My wife.
