True to all beauties Of the poet thought
Which made thy youth so eloquent and sweet;
True to all duties which thy manhood brought
To take the room of fanciss light and fleet.
True to the steadfast walk and narrow way,
Which thy forefathers of the covenant trod!
True to thy friend In foul or sunny day.
True to thy home, thy country, and thy God;
True to the world, which still is false to thee,
And true to alias thou art true to me.
True to the VOW that bound us in the lane,
That summer evening when the brown bird sang,
Piercing the silence with sweet notes Of pain, :
While echoes over all the woodland rang.
True to the troth we plighted on that day,
Each to forsake all others for the one;
Cleaving together through the unknown way.
Till death made void the union then begun.
True to the love brought by a little hand;
True-though the patter of the childish feet
Has passed from earth to the silent land;
Loss hallows love, and love is still complete;
can lift up mine eyes from tear drops free,
For thou art true to all these things-and me. ].

When I Was Seventeen !!

When l Was Seventeen!
All! well do remember still
How bright life was to me
When was only seventeen
And you were twenty three,
The earth was fairer then, 1 Think
I han ere I see itnow;
How softly blew the warm west wind
That listened to our VOW.
We made it in the whispering dark,
Beneath ourltrysting tree.
All! then was but seventeen,
And You were twenty-three!
The river rippled soft and low
Its dear familiar song;
We stood upon the old stone bridge,
And all the world seemed young.
And there with one long lingering kiss
You took my heart from me,
All! well, was but seventeen,
And you just twenty three!
Far off the grand old hills arose;
The stars shone out above
And all the night was fair and sweet;
The air was full of love.
fondly wonder many time,
If you think tenderly
OF what was at seventeen
And you at twenty three!
1t is not very long ago;
But bitter tears have wet
The cheeks you kissed so lovingly,
Eh! if could forget?
Why were you faithless? o my love,
The world has changed to me.
Since l was only seventeen,
And you were twenty three!
And often when the night-wind signs
Along the river side,
My heart goes back with longing pain
To that sweet eventide.
But still, love to think of it,
For nevermore, ali me!
Shall again be seventeen,
Or you be twenty-three!
