Here twas we parted, both broken-hearted,
Vowlng thai absence would strengthen our
love;
Hearts beating sadly, lips meeting gladly,
Darkness around, and the heavens above.
ALL remember-love's dying ember
Flames forth anew ere it sinks to its rest
Sweet stolen kisses, true lovers blisses,
Soft whispered words and passion con-
fessed.
Now that we meet, love, how do we greet,
lands coldly clasped, and worldly wise
smile
What is't you say, loves GA beautiful day,
love,
And you hope I'd good weather while doing
the Nile"
Not thus you spoke, love, meath the old oak,
Leaving the dancers to bid me adieu.
Then your last word, love, scarce could be
heard, love;
Tears choked your voice as you vowed
you'd be true.
Wen, it Is over; poor Tilted lover,
Lonely stand where we parted of old,
Useless repining, Fortunes self shining,
Glds up your fiance, ugly and old.
Blame you? Not 1, child Only sigh, child,
Closes the chapter together we read.
Silent L leave you, why should grieve you!
Why rake the ashes OF love that is deads
Bury them, rather, deeper and farther:
Never look back?' is society's plan.
Life is too brief, dear, long to feel grief,
dear,
And I'll find an heiress as soon as can.
