Aun9ue jamas mi corazon abriga

A humedecer mis- parpados en llanto.
Que debil soy! En vano he procurado
CalIar la voz que en- mi Interior resuena;
E>a voz de las tronbas que la brotado
Ea noche de recuerdos LENA.
!Te acuerdas de esa noche2 Conmovida
Ne mirabas, hablando de ventura,

Con tus besos las hojas de amargura.
tie acuerdas7 iCuantas ilusiones bellas
Formamos la luz de nuestro anhelo!
;Cuantas frases oyeron las estrellas
Sonar cruzando la extension del cielo
Solos los dos, amandonos ardientes,
Sin mas testgo que la blanca luna,
Que alumbraba, banando nuestras frentes,
Dos exlstenclas paipltanoo en- una:
Amandonos los dos con la creencia
De nunca separarnos en- Ell mundo,
Sin esta tempestad en- Ia conciencia,
Que lorna Ilanto nuestro amor profundo.
De aquella noche que dej6 en- nuestrs alma
Una historic de amor Y desvarfo,
Parece hoy que la atmosfera de caima
Vuelve juntar tu corazon el mfo.
Ne acuerdo de las nubes azuladas
En- ell briliante cielo suspendidas,
De horas de lentas campanadas,
De tus promesas dulces y queridas,
Ne acuerdo de tu aliento soberano,
Que abrazaba mis- labios con su fuego,
7 de tn mano CUE estrecho mi mano
Como qoeriendo contestar un ruego.
hoy, ausentes, sin vernos, sin que pueda
Dir tu voz, nj comtemplar tus gracias
Sin enjugsr la lagrirna que rueda
De cada una de todas mis- desgracias.
Jay! que rompa tn passion los velos
Que hoy nos apartan, mi augusta cese;
Ven yo hare de cada astro de los cielos
Tn angel que te Guide que te bese.
No consientas que sufra; yo to llamo
Ven alumbrar mi lobrega existencia
Tu saees que soy tuyo, y que te amo
Como 81 unico DIos de mi conciencia.
T1, la amorosa t1nica testigo
De mi honda pena : de mi suerte impia
Ven, porque sufro; ven, halle contigo
Dulce consuelo en- la desgracia mia.

Un mundo de passion y blenandanza,
Ven, encendamos como aquella noche
Un nuevo astro de amor y de esperanza.

coming back with a morbid pleasure to-
the haunts of her wrctchcd life in the

thrifty. There can be no doubt, from
these expeiimentsa that forest planting

success
B 1t may, be Noted that the larch was
the most pepulafof forest trees in the
early planting on the Western prairie.
