THE MUSIC OF THE HEART.

lis Is not from scenes that please the eye,
= From summers green repose;
From mountains brow, or azure sky
That purest pleasure flows,
Ihe streamlet's voice, the song of birds,
Can healthful joys impart
But sweeter still are kindly words,
The music of the heart
The workings of that Pc yer which fills
The temple of the Free
The murmurings of forest rills
Are ever dear to me;
Yet, what are natures choicest things,
II blindly viewed apart
From loves deep source whence richly springs
The music Of the heart =?

Bathed in the soft moonlight.

Lay lightly, aud thrill

soft touch sometimes will.
drew her closer to my side;
For why should disguise
The love I'd felt since first looked
Into her deep gray eyes?
/ saw the moons rays softly kiss
Her lovely upturned face,
And well, what would you have done
If you'd been in my place?
