JENNIFS DISAPPOINTMENT,

Yet dear 70 me his accents sweet
I sm woman, he bird.
And here We twain in exile dweIb
Far from our native woods and skies,
And devy lawns with healthful smell.
Where daisies lift their laughing eyes.
Never again from moss-built nest
Shall The Gagged woodls-k blithely soar;
Mover again the heath be pressed
By foot Of mine forever more!
Yet from that feathered, quivering throat,
4 blessing wins across to me;
No ,hrail can hold that mellow note,
Or oueach its fame in slavery.

Flz open, rs with magic key;
And far from life's peplexing straits,
Ny spirit waudsrs swift and free.

The fraSsnce of the mountain breeze,

Through tossing boughs Of ancient trees.

Wssse cs:sle-bells with drowsy chime
&sks u,usic IN the quiet land.
When morning dsWns in holy calm,
Aud Zach true heart to worship calls.
Gine is the prayer, but his the psalm,
That 6osts about our prison walls.
And a. behind the thwarting wires
The captive creature throbs and sings,
With him ny Eonpting soul aspires
On mIsic's strong and cleaving wings.

Tears rouse me with sadden shock;
Lolat my door, erect and trim.

Arises with confusing hmm.
