THAN A FRIEND.
BY JAKE BCDD.

Dear partner of my waking hours,
Companion Of my sleep,
Where'er I go, DER fields of flowers,
Or by the rocky steep:
At days decline or mornings blush,
Or when the night lets down
The mantel of its solemn hush
On sleeping vale and town;
In hours when hope and pleasure blend
Or in my moments sad,
Thou clingeth closer than friend,
Ny faithful liver pad
