Itseems but four months 'stead of years,
| q That commenced my duties at noon;
| ! am sad and leave them In tears,
| That they pass awav from me 50 soon.
| But all things we have pass away,
| Where's nothing In life that will last"
| Time comes but does not come to stay,
| With our lives and dreams IT'S soon past
| Ileave many friends who are dear,
| Who soon will forget these old scenes,
For something that's pleasant and near,
| And be happy as here they have been.
There are others I've met in THE place
| Who have passed tar away aud .re gone,
| loved--but that loves run ITS race,
They are there and am here alone.
still, | hold them and all In fond love.
And thesd four year, In memory III recall
With pleasure, In which we all stroye
To be Kindness, and pleasant to all,
May each friend of my duties now past.
| Remember me IN years to come
| With friendship that will always last,
That comes only steadfast TO some.
So goodbye dear old p. q. and friends,
| In silence now go from thee,
Though my love TO thee ever extends,
And Is astrue as the depth OF the sea.
| My life will now widely divergc.
| In the changes that come 10 us NIL.
As the pillows that roll surge DER surge,
So each hope and each dream, too, will fall.
| My four years out and I'm leaving,
Yes, leaving to let others In,
| And tits with regrets, no deceiving.
| That leave, new life TO begin.
