Oh, gay is owe when Love in music calls
In music calls.
Oh bright is Love. dancing through lighted halls
Through lighted halls
Oh, sweet Loves kiss beneath the mistetoe
And soft his words where fur-wrarped seighers go
With tinkng bells across the moonlit snow.
But sad is Love beneath the ioyless rains,
The palid rains
When February to sad Earth complains
In rnournfu strains
From the wet woods and late unhappy leaves,
Rain-rotting brers and rank rejected sheaves,
Love drops his sweet averted eyes, and grieves.
So from my gray, bleak life I fear he'll stray;
Yea though pray
To clasp his lower-sweet fingers for one day.
He loves the May,
With bride-buds set and violets abloom;
He loves the r0Se-crowned scented month of June
When rarest singing-bitds are all in tune.
o heart, thou vert little traitor set
A traitor set
Where fondest hopes and truest vows had meh
Thou art in debt
To February weeping Love. One day,
One rain-cold day when all the sky was gray,
He came with smiling face and came to stay
He dried with kisses all my tear-stained face:
All, what sweet grace
He made my dreary room splendid place;
He left no trace
Of doubt gloom; he said with clear kind eyes,
"Oh, Love may live beneath the coudless skies;
But wet with pain of tears-he never dies!"

Straight from heavens gates. and thou art goriied
Oh. that the golden sunset could but speak
Those burning thoughts for which all words are
weak
Could tell how my whole love to thee is given,
Queenchless and pure the very fire from heaven.
All lift the wonders of that amber hair
And turn on me thine eyes, oh sweet and fair!
And let their pity meet the love in mine
Pity and love akin ard both dvinel

The beauteous robe she wore:
It's folds golden belt embraced
One rose-hued gem it bore.
The girdle shrank: its lessening round
Still kept the shining gem,
But now her flowing locks it bound,
A lustrous diadem.
And narrower still the circlet grew;
Behold! glittering band,
It's roseate diamond set anew,
Her necks white column SPAWNED.
Suns rise and set; the straining clasp
The shortened links resist
Yet flashes in a bracelets grasp
The diamond on her wrist
At length the round of changes past,
The thieving years could bring
The Jewel, glittering to the last,
Still sparSles in ring
So, link by link. our friendships part
So loosen. break and fall
