How lightly said, how careless spoken
When friends depart with joy unbroken,
Aud hand meets hand with this last token
Good night! good night!
How slowly said, with soft delaying,
When love for yet more love is praying,
Add heart meet heart, while lips are say
ing
Good night! good night
But tenderly, with what new meaning.
From agony aud anguish gleauing,
We whisper, DER a sick bed leaning
Good night! good night!
And 10 the weary spirit winging,'
Its flight beyond all earthly clinging,
Is Death, perchance, an angel bringing,
Good night! good night
food Words.
