EASTER SONG.
Awaken, sweet flowers !

Awaken, sweet flowers
The snow in the valleys has melted at last,
And the desolate night of the year is past
The ice.chains broken, the robins are singing
Awake to the call of the Easter bells ringing
Awaken, o heart
In the bondage Of sin thou hast slumbered SO longs
Arise in the beauty and rapture of song;
Arise in the gladness of natures adornng,-
Come forth in thy strength on this glad Easter
morningi Rose HARTwIcK THORPE.
