Only love came. with tender voice and hand,
And smilo and kiss she scarce could UNDER

And once dear eyes. that now unanswered
When friends looked on her, and as if she

Their faces shone and faded. Months and
years
They met their lost one In the sad retreat
And found her not, and passed with burdened
feet
And bitter tears.
She saw them but as phantoms which all hours
Thrust on her brain. and yet they brought her
flowers as
And gentle words and lavished-was 1T vain2
Their unthanked pity on her unfelt pain
Month after month, year after year-and then
Some fell away; the world had swept them by,
And sorrowing friendship with its lingering

Her mates found other favorites, some were
wives
And mothers; into her own sisters lives
Crept care; her brothers turned aside to wed
New loves grown dearer than the living dead;
And few and fewer of her kindred came
Till but two yearning mourners looked and
smiled
Upon the imprisoned shadow of their child.
And breathcd her name.
Long time the suffering father kept his tryst,
But failed at length and staid away, unmissed
By her he missed SO screly. Oh, the balm
