UNDER THE vI0LETs.
BY OLIVER wendell HOLMES.

Her hands arc cold her face is white;
No moro her pulses come and go;
Her eyes are shut to life and light
Fold the white yestures, snow on snow,
And lay her where the violets blow.
But not beneath craven stone,
To plead for tears with alien eyes;
slender cross Of wood alone slss..Ss
Shall say That herc>eSnaiden lies 8
In peace beneath the peaceful skies.
And gray old trees OF hugest limb
Shall wheel their circling shadows round
To make the scorching sunlight dim,
That drink the greennCss from the ground
And drop their dead leaves OH her mound.
When Ger their boughs the squirrels run,
Aud through the leaves the robins call,
And, ripcning in the autumn sun,
The acorns and the chestnuts fall,
Doubt not that she will heed them all.
To her the morning choir shall sing
Its mathis from the branches high,
And every minstrel voice of Spring,
Thnt thrills beneath the April sky,
Shall greet her with it's earliest cry.
When, turning round their dial track,
Eastward the leugthening shadows pass,
Her little mourners, clad in black,
The crickets sliding through the grass
Shall pipe for her an evening mass.
AT last the rootlcts from the trees
Shall find the prison where she lies,
And bear tho buried dust they seize,
In leaves and blossoms, to the skies;
SO may the soul that warmed it rise
If any, born Of kindlier blood,
Should ask, What maiden lies below?
Say only this: A tender bud
That tried TO blossom in tho snow
Lies witherel where the vioets blow.
