REMEMBER.


From the French of Alfred De Musset.
Remember. when the Dawn sets open wide
Her bright enchanted palace 10 the sun;
Remember, when the Night, the pensveeyed.
Comes dreaming under wells all Silverspun'
When thy bosom beats high with pleasure supreme
When the twilight allures thee to brood and to dream
Hsrkl the forest profound
Has voice IN It's sound
Remember"
Remember me, when fate has drawn our ways
Afar, for evermore afar apart;
When sorrow, exile and the fight OF days
Have withered like a flower this breaking Deart.
o, forget not our parting my love and its tears!
Love laughs at the malice of space and OF years
While my bosom shall beat
viii its pulses repeat
"Remember!"
Remember me- when, nevermOre distrest,
This heart of mine shall slumber in the tomb,
'emember, when above its house OF rest
Softly solitary flower shall bloom,
Thou wilt see me more but my spirit silau De-
Like sister beloved. forever with thee
When the midnight Is nigh
Thou shalt hear voice sigh
