THE QUIET STREAM.

Seven miles drove 10 hnd stream,
That leaped is rocks among;
But found only one that made
A little lulling song.
DER pebbly shadows soft II ran,
And In lis quiet breast
The fresh born beechen leaves OF May
We're mlrTored and at rest,
Among It's little island stones
The water birds were gay,
And all the trees along the banks
Bent down 70 see II play.
And I remember her whose life,
So many yeaEs ago,
Besides my restless heart was wont
In Quietude TO low.
Her voice was even, and her soul
Reflected love and where
She moved 10 gnce, the hearts OF all
Bent down 70 look 81 her.
o happy hour in which ! thought
OF one so sweet aud wise;
And blessed be the stream that mAdO
Her memory arise.
