And with her hand upon the lock she

And down the worlds bright path her

boy rings from every cot and palace now.
And roses bloom where ere their prints

Glad youth peals out, the loud. the deep,

And laughs and jests comm n.le round

When night has tucked her curtains
round the earth.
Bright burns the fire, the dusky, crimson
glow.

Old are SITS dreaming Of the davs ago,

And burst the gates of each unhappy
heart;
That star crOwu'd, she with dimpled, rose
wreathed hand.
May soft to every pain her fume i'm

Break down the low, gray gates of
misery.
And hide the chains that bind up ev'ry
