THE BROOK.

Little sweetheart, you've forgotten
How you played for me one night.
Twas the sweet old Brook of Tennyson-your
eyes were shining bright,
And the lamplight softly fell upon the splendor
of your hair
Your cheeks aglow-the sunset clouds
Were not so passing fair.
heard the sweet, low, pebbly
Sound of waters ripping free;
The murmuring trees, the whispering grass
and drone of drOwsy bee.
1t was softly singing summer in some shady
woodland nook,
And my soul began TO pulsate
With the rhythm of the Brook.
| seemed to see your laughing face
At the bottom of the stream
wav'ring, feeting water nymph from some
Greek poets dream,
And your blue eyes seemed to beckon and then
laugh in elish glee
On that dear old winter evening
When you played the Brook for me.
Little sweetheart, you've forgotten,
But the tinkle Of that tune
Is still ringing in my mem'ry like soft bird
songs heard in June,
And the love that came that evening with that
ripping little river,
Though years may come and years may go,
VIII still ''go on forever!"
