If tell YOU that l love you

That my heart has worn the letters
OF your beauty, fresh and rare
That my life is bound unto you

Will you answer that you love me
If you answer me at all.
Nay, sweet lips, speak not your answer
Let me still, uncertain, wait.
| am weak with too much loving.
And I fear too much my fate.

The Workman to his Wife.

Come, Mary. throw your work aside,
And let your troubles be;
Leave care and toll and smoke awhile.
And spend an hour with me.
Well seek the cowslip on the bank,
The primrose in the lane,
And happy sights and sounds afar
Stall make US young again.
It's long, my love, since you and
Have heard the blackbirds sing,
Or caught, by running brooks and woods
The glory of the Spring.
It's long since you and have trod
The paths where hawthorns blow,
Then Mary, fling your work aside,
And let your troubles go.
The trees shall bend to welcome US;
The flowers shall clasp our feet;
The very bees shall hymn our praise,
In murmurs soft and sweet.
The winds shall swell, with ready voice,
The chorus high and loud,
And well forget the world. my wife,
And all its busy crowd.
A thousand things await US, love-
Blue skies and balmy air,
Green fields.whose very sight shall make
The heart forget its care.
Then never sigh, be glad to-day,
Throw sorrows TO the wind,
Nor pause till we have left our ills
A Summers hour behind.
