UNDER THE THORN.


Under tho thorn in the field OF clover
Two hearts met in the Summer morn.
Met by chance with the blue skies over,
Under the thorn.
Love, the live blossom Of iif.. reborn.
Z Burst into bloom in the heart OF each lover
In full fruiton, that feared hot scorn;
Sweet are the songs Of the birds above
her.
"hilo love. no more with its heart fOrlorn.
Discovers the lips 1t would fain discover.
Under the thorn
Under the thorn when the blossoms withe-,
Shall Love lie lauguid or droop forlorn;
When It's joys had gone AMI YOU wonder
whittier.
Under tho thorn.
Still in the springtimcs yet unborn
Like n cloud or blossom or bird-wipc's
feather
Plucked from its dying pinions torn.
Shall love forever in its own weather
Come through the air in life's azure morn.
When two hearts shall meet, thus per-
chance, together
Under the thorn.
