AN OLD SONG.

AN OLD SUNG.
1t rose in cadence sweet and clear,
That old familiar song
And sounds from many bygone year
Came to me mid the throng.
In II the pleasant summer breeze
Swept through the crowded rooms
And sang amid the l.lcaved trees
And DER the hawthorn, blooms
In it heard the reapers strain
Upon u harvest morn;
In II, the skylark's notes again
Above the springing corn;
hear the plowman's whistle blithe
From uplands far away,
The whetting of the mowers scythe
Mid swaths of new mown hay.
In it l heard the ring doves Groom,
The robins liquid note,
The plover's cry beneath the moon
Where broad eaved lilies float
heard the brown bees drowsy hum
Der how'rs of red and gold,
l nearu from lips forever uuMD,
The tender speech of old
In II again heard, alas,
The church bells solemn sound,
The rustic of the tall rank grass
Above a graveyard mound;
And joys and griefs and hopes and fears
That to the past belong,
Came back to Ill mine eyes with tears
With that familiar song
